Overview

A heartwarming cozy mystery series about losing everything, taking a chance, and starting again. After suffering a personal tragedy Abby Sullivan buys a huge old seaside mansion she has never even seen, packs up her life in San Francisco, and moves to Holiday Bay Maine, where she is adopted, quite against her will, by a huge Maine Coon Cat named Rufus, a drifter with her own tragic past named Georgia, and a giant dog with an inferiority complex named Ramos. What Abby thought she needed was alone time to heal. What she ended up with was, an inn she never knew she wanted, a cat she couldn't seem to convince to leave, and a new family she'd never be able to live without. In book 18 in the series, while on a date with Abby, Colt receives a call to check out a light inside an old abandoned lighthouse closed for renovations. The pair respond to the call only to find evidence of two trespassers, one of which is now dead. Meanwhile, Abby is swamped at the inn helping Georgia and Jeremy when the cast of a reality show check in. "Real Detectives" might just be a 'small time' competition hosted by the same local cable television station that airs Georgia's cooking show, but the quarter million dollars in prize money represents a 'big time' payday causing the eight competitors who made it to the finals to take things quite seriously.
