The Sailing Club Mystery
(2026)(The second book in the Harmony Stone Murder Mystery series)
A novel by J A Harris
When retired history teacher Harmony Stone arrives in Kingscombe to house-sit for the summer, she expects coastal walks, a quiet cat, and perhaps a little local history research.
Instead, she finds herself drawn into the troubled world of the Kingscombe Sailing Club, where gossip travels fast, old loyalties run deep, and the missing wife of commodore Ray Doble still casts a long shadow over the town.
On the night of the regatta fireworks, a guest aboard Ray’s yacht, the Bella Donna, is found dead in a locked cabin. The police call it suspicious. Harmony calls it impossible. And when she discovers a hidden trail of financial fraud, a ghostly sighting, and a decades-old secret tied to a lost woman, she realises someone in Kingscombe will do anything to keep the truth buried.
With the help of her friends, a wary detective, and one very observant cat, Harmony uncovers a secret the town has protected for thirty years. But in Kingscombe, some people would rather let the past stay beneath the tide.
A cosy coastal mystery full of secrets, local legends, and puzzling recipes. Not to mention a cat who always manages to be in the right place at the right time.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
