Description

When Demelza Pascoe's grandfather is murdered on a Cornish beach, she must untangle long-buried secrets, hidden rivalries, and a deadly deception—before the killer strikes again.

The picturesque shores of St Merryn's Cove hide a deadly secret. When Demelza Pascoe's beloved grandfather, Bill, is found murdered on the beach, the small town is shaken to its core. As a bookshop owner and respected historian, Bill had no enemies—or so it seemed.

Determined to uncover the truth, Demelza, along with her loyal friends Jess and Harry, begins to investigate. What she finds is a tangled web of old grudges, hidden motives, and a mystery that stretches back further than she imagined. As she digs deeper, Demelza learns that Bill's latest research—an explosive revelation about a local pasty recipe—may have made him a target.

With her brother, DS Adam Pascoe, warning her to stay out of police business, and a community full of whispers and half-truths, Demelza must trust her instincts. But as the clues mount and tensions rise, she realizes the killer is watching—and they won't hesitate to silence anyone who gets too close to the truth.

For fans of classic whodunits and coastal mysteries, Murder on the Beach is a gripping tale of betrayal, small-town intrigue, and a sleuth who refuses to back down.
