The Deed at Beacon Point — A Beacon Point Lighthouse Mystery, Book 1

A New Beginning. A Deadly Secret. A Lighthouse With a Past.

After twenty-eight years of high-pressure deals in Boston, Eleanor Whitmore is ready for a fresh start. When the aunt she barely knew leaves her a lighthouse keeper's cottage on the rugged coast of Maine, Eleanor hopes for peace, quiet, and a simpler life.

But on her first night at Beacon Point, the old lighthouse caretaker tells her that Julia left her something — and not to mention it to anyone, not even the lawyer. Hours later, he is dead at the foot of the lighthouse stairs, and Eleanor sees a dark car leaving the dead-end road with its headlights off.

What follows pulls Eleanor into a web of hidden deeds, a powerful preservation trust, a four-million-dollar offer for the lighthouse, and a decades-old secret someone is still willing to kill to keep buried.

With help from a quiet ex-Coast Guard neighbor, a sharp-eyed detective, the big-hearted owner of the village café, and a twenty-pound orange Maine Coon named Fresnel, Eleanor must uncover the truth before the lighthouse — and her new life — slips away.
