Sleuth on the Beach — Janni Nell

At forty-two, Briony had everything—good job, nice house, loyal husband. Now she's lost the lot. Okay, she still has her health, but that's cold comfort when the other things are missing. Having nowhere else to go, she heads to Kangaroo Cove and moves in with her brother, who is barely housebroken. Turns out, living in a coastal town isn't all lazy days on the beach and lunches at the local pub. Less than forty-eight hours after arriving, she finds a dead body. The police believe it's an accident, but Briony can think of several people who have a motive for murder. There's the cousin who benefits from the deceased's will, the would-be lover who was rejected and the deceased's best friend. Then there's Sam. He's not a suspect—it's just that Briony can't stop thinking about him. Too bad she's not ready for a relationship so soon after her marriage breakup. Anyway, she's got her hands full with the investigation now that a second body's been found. Can she solve the mystery before the killer strikes again? Or will she become the next victim?
