A Murder at Whispering Pines Lodge
(2026)(A book in the Moonlight Bay Cozy Mystery series)
A Story by C L Harrow
A quiet getaway deep in the woods takes a deadly turn.
When Grace Hastings arrives at Whispering Pines Lodge for a peaceful retreat, she expects rest, quiet, and a break from the troubles of Moonlight Bay. Instead, a locked door at the end of a silent hallway leads to a shocking discovery—and a guest who won’t be leaving.
The victim, Arthur Bellamy, had been asking questions about the lodge’s past—questions that struck too close to the truth. Margaret Ellis, the lodge’s owner, had more at stake than she was willing to admit. And David Mercer, a longtime guest, knew more about Bellamy’s investigation than he let on.
As Grace uncovers hidden records and conflicting stories, it becomes clear this wasn’t an accident. It was a desperate attempt to keep the past buried.
With tensions rising and no one allowed to leave, Grace and Tom must uncover the truth before another secret turns deadly.
