Exciting news! I'm proud to announce the release of the Second Edition of Lights in the Water. This updated edition has been carefully revised and enhanced to provide an even better reading experience, featuring refinements throughout the story while preserving the mystery, suspense, and wonder that inspired the original. Whether you're discovering Willow Cove for the first time or returning to uncover its secrets once again, I hope you'll enjoy this new edition as much as I enjoyed creating it. Thank you to everyone who has supported my writing journey-your encouragement has made this new release possible. The lights are shining over Willow Cove once again... are you ready to uncover the truth?

Lights in the Water is a cozy mystery set in Willow Cove, a quaint coastal town where librarian Clara Tate becomes an unlikely sleuth after her friend Marina Wells is murdered, her body found on the cove's rocks with telltale bruises. Driven by grief and resolve, Clara uncovers Marina's obsession with a glowing unidentified submerged object (USO), revealed as a 1930s sonar prototype, Beacon's Pulse, tied to the sunken Sea Sparrow and a smuggling legacy guarded by the Pierce family. As Clara decodes Marina's journal, sketches, and notes, she faces threatening notes-Leave the lights alone and Stop now, or drown in the light-a library break-in, and a mysterious stranger whose locket and map hint at a broader conspiracy. With Roland Pierce's confession to Marina's murder, secured through Clara's clever lighthouse lure, and his subsequent arrest, justice seems near, but the stranger's escape and a hidden code in the locket point to unresolved secrets. Joined by Tess, Maggie, Lila, Jonah, and a vibrant cast of Willow Cove locals, Clara vows to track the stranger and honor Marina at a candlelit harbor memorial, where whispers of lingering mysteries set the stage for a sequel.
