A Dark and Starlit Sea
(2026)(The seventh book in the Writer's Apprentice Mystery series)
A novel by Julia Buckley
Book Seven in the bestselling Writer's Apprentice series follows Lena and Sam to their honeymoon on a far-flung island in the Adriatic Sea. The scenery is idyllic, and the newly-married couple are happily in love. Yet a darkness lurks in their peaceful resort, and they are drawn in to a tragic event and the aftermath of a man's mysterious death. While trying to make sense of the crisis, they encounter a mega-millionaire, an eccentric old man, and a beautiful Instagram star.
The narration alternates between their Adriatic honeymoon and their home in Blue Lake, Indiana, giving the readers a sense of the crime in real time and in retrospect. As always, the Blue Lake Gang is there to support Sam and Lena as they struggle to process their disturbing experience. The concern for all of them is whether they will be able to find the truth before danger finds them--again.
