In the quiet seaside town of Harbor’s End, The Turning Page bookshop is more than a place for stories—it’s where secrets surface and lives begin again. After losing a career that defined her, Claire Bennett never expects to find herself drawn into a series of unsettling murders. With the help of a perceptive aunt and a guarded local detective, Claire must untangle hidden motives, buried pasts, and the fragile truths people try to protect. As each mystery unfolds, so does the possibility of something she never planned—a second chance at love, and a life she might finally choose for herself.
Lillian Ashford writes cozy mysteries and heartfelt romances set in quaint towns where secrets linger and second chances are always possible. A retired professional, she now spends her days crafting stories of love, resilience, and quiet reinvention. When she’s not writing, she enjoys reading by the water and watching the tide roll in.View all by Lillian Ashford
