Murder at the Seafood Jubilee
(2026)(The sixth book in the Honeyford Harbor Culinary Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by R L Everheart
A deadly fall. A sabotaged dock. And a festival that could sink Honeyford Harbor for good…
The annual Seafood Jubilee is supposed to save Honeyford Harbor’s struggling tourist season—not end in murder.
When a notoriously abrasive seafood supplier plunges from the docks during a live cooking demonstration, everyone blames a tragic accident caused by a loose board. But café owner Eden Morales knows accidents rarely come wrapped in perfect timing.
Especially when the victim spent the morning publicly humiliating vendors, threatening permits, and exposing suspicious sourcing deals.
As gossip spreads faster than chowder at the Jubilee, Eden digs into the chaos with help from her oyster-bar-running best friend, her ever-steady contractor ally, and Crumb—the mischievous orange-and-white café cat who uncovers a hidden truck latch beneath a tarp.
With angry fishermen, rival seafood tents, corrupt inspections, and secrets buried deep in her late grandmother’s festival notes, Eden realizes someone sabotaged the docks to silence the victim permanently.
And if she can’t uncover the truth soon, Honeyford Harbor’s beloved festival may collapse along with its reputation.
