A hidden satchel. A long-buried murder. A seaside town with secrets worth killing for…When Harvey Ross's terrier unearths an old leather satchel on Sheringham beach, the retired Detective Inspector discovers something the Norfolk waves should have claimed decades ago: evidence of an unreported 1950s murder—and a cryptic reference to treasure the locals swear doesn't exist.Newly divorced and restless, Harvey can't resist pulling the thread. But as he navigates seaside gossip, forgotten grudges, and lies that have aged like the salt-worn groynes along the coast, he realizes someone is watching. Someone who's kept this secret for seventy years and won't let a meddling newcomer drag it into the light.With Max at his side and allies among Sheringham's quirky residents, Harvey must solve the mystery before the next high tide washes away more than just footprints in the sand.A delightful coastal cozy brimming with charm, twists, and dark currents beneath the surface. Perfect for fans of M.C. Beaton, Richard Osman, and Frances Evesham.--------------------------------------------------------------------What people are saying about Theo Harris:“????? Brilliant!
