Death at the Docks
(2026)(The second book in the Mari Quinn Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Blossom Cole
A dead man at the festival ribbon-cutting. A town that's already decided who did it. And a bakery owner with a goldendoodle who keeps sniffing the wrong flower bed.Mari Quinn didn't move to Winslow Harbor to solve murders. She came for the salt air, the fixer-upper, and the bakery she's been building from scratch.
But when event founder Thomas Whitaker collapses mid-ceremony, something feels off. The ceremonial scissors. The crowd. A marina full of people with something to hide.
Restaurant owner Daniel Cho watched Whitaker control his booth placement for years. Did his patience run out?
Finance Chair Caroline Mercer signed six years of falsified invoices. She deleted damaging computer files before the body was even cold.
Both had everything to lose if Whitaker kept digging.
But Ginger keeps circling the foxglove beds. The maintenance log shows someone on site before anyone should have been.
Detective Cross wants Mari to stay out of it.
The real killer is counting on exactly that.
