Whispering Pines loves its festivals. This one came with a body.

Harbor Days turns the seaside town into a whirl of lights, music, and packed inns. As the innkeeper everyone confides in—and the keeper of Whispering Pines’ stories—I’m juggling festival chaos and a psychic cat who won’t stop watching the ferris wheel. Then beloved sailor Ollie Parks is found dead in his boat beneath the lights. Police call it an accident. The details say otherwise.

Suspicion spreads fast. Margot Parks, Ollie’s long-exiled sister, returns with a past no one wants reopened. Jamie Drummond, a competitive sailor with everything on the line, panics when boats begin turning up sabotaged. And balloon artist Benny Flanders knows more about that night than his jokes let on. With clues hidden in missing trophies, coded regatta maps, and decades-old favors, I follow a truth someone is desperate to bury.

Because if I don’t expose it before the final parade, the harbor won’t just lose its history—it’ll claim another life.
