Murder At The Maplewood Harbor Inn
(2026)(The seventh book in the Ivy Sinclair Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Erin Macy
Murder Checks In at the Harbor Inn
Ivy Sinclair only came to the Maplewood Harbor Inn to write about its grand reopening. The ocean views, old photos, and reopening story should have been enough.
Douglas Hartwell is the cruel co-trustee of the Hartwell family inn trust. Then Douglas turns up dead in Room Four.
Officer Roberts has a tidy suspect: Sylvia Hartwell, Douglas’s cousin. She had every reason to want him gone, no alibi, and a keycard tied to the crime scene. But Ivy has learned tidy stories often hide messy truths.
Watson, her beagle, sniffs out clues. Alice, her wise neighbor, offers shortbread and sharp instincts. With their help, Ivy asks harder questions. Petra, the event coordinator, endured Douglas’s public insults. Gus, the maintenance man, was furious after Douglas threatened to cut his job and benefits. Both had reasons to hate him.
Then someone searches Ivy’s room. Evidence turns up where it should not. The killer wants Sylvia to take the blame.
If Ivy can’t expose the real killer, an innocent woman will take the fall—and murder will stain the inn’s new beginning.
