Murder at the Undertow
(2026)(The tenth book in the Molly McBeal Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Maple Quinn
A locked cottage. A murdered civic leader. A killer determined to bury Blue Heron Bay's secrets.
When a prominent citizen is found dead inside an empty rental cottage, former psychotherapist Molly McBeal turns her gift for reading faces toward a town full of contradictions. With perceptive mini Aussiedoodle Star at her side, and Chief Sarah Shire reluctantly welcoming her insights, Molly follows the emotions others try to conceal.
The victim's widow consulted a divorce attorney after discovering unexplained withdrawals. A resentful former employee is hiding financial misconduct. A displaced renter publicly confronted the cottage manager, while the manager's jealous husband suspects a dangerous affair. Each had reason to want the victim silenced. None is telling Molly everything.
When a chilling warning tells her to back off, Molly realizes the killer is watching her every move. Now the watcher has become the watched, and Molly must uncover the killer before she becomes the next victim.
