Half Moon Lake($15.99Value)

Description

A tragic accident… or murder… Two years after the sudden death of her husband, young widow Vivian Miles seeks comfort in the quiet sunroom of her lake house. With a glass of wine in one hand and binoculars in the other, her peaceful view turns unsettling when something across the lake catches her eye. Her laughter fades as she is pulled into the center of an investigation— so it appears. Maria Stone, new to town and ready to retire, takes on one final case—unofficial, unspoken, and dangerously personal: a chance to help her son and daughter-in-law adopt a little boy abandoned by his homeless father— if that’s truly all it is. With whispers of a disputed inheritance swirling, the dangerously devoted are willing to cross any line to claim him— was he ever theirs to begin with? Oliver and PJ—estranged brothers—share more than blood; they share a past tangled in jealousy, addiction, and a child with a fortune in dispute— until the truth surfaces. Shadows from deep below—a chilling reminder that not everything is as it seems… and maybe never was. "Clara Bella Rose weaves together grief, mystery, and hope with such tenderness that you hardly notice how the suspense is building until it grips your chest. The reveal of who was lost, who was left behind, and why hits hard, and yet the ending feels like healing." Goodreads Review by Carys Moore
