Moonlight Shadow Mysteries: Harvest Moon (Book 1 of 5‪)‬

In the seaside town of Crescent Harbor, Maine, baker Sage Holloway is up before dawn, behind the counter before anyone else, and watching the street while the town still sleeps. She notices what others miss. When a beloved old fisherman dies of what everyone calls a fishing accident, the times don't add up — and Sage starts keeping a notebook.

The Moonlight Shadow Mysteries is a five-book cozy series about a baker who is not a detective, a town that takes care of its own, and a small black cat named Shadow who seems to know things he shouldn't. Each book is a complete mystery — a death the town wants to call an accident, a quiet woman patient enough to write down the small things, and a truth that someone has spent a very long time keeping buried. Together, the five books tell one larger story: how a town learns what has been done to it, and what it costs to set it right.

Warm, slow-burning, and full of cider doughnuts, cardamom buns, kitchen-table kindness, and the particular courage of ordinary people, these are mysteries for readers who love a strong sense of place, a found family worth returning to, and a heroine whose greatest weapon is simply that she was awake at four in the morning with a clear view of the street.
