Lanterns, Lighthouses and Death (A Knick-Knack Boutique Mystery Book 5)
By Constance Barker
Welcome to Anderson Springs, where nothing is quite as it seems, and danger lurks just below the surface.
The picturesque town of Anderson Springs is known for its historic lighthouse, perched on a rocky cliff above the treacherous waters of a secluded cove. For over a century, the Anderson Springs Lighthouse has stood as a beacon of safety, guiding ships through the dangerous coastline. But when the beloved member of the community is found dead at the base of the tower under suspicious circumstances, the town’s tranquil facade is shattered.
Lyndy is drawn into the investigation. Though the authorities initially rule it an accident, Lyndy’s instincts tell her otherwise. As she and Cody dig deeper, she uncovers clues pointing to a web of deception stretching back decades—long-buried secrets that involve a smuggling ring thought to have disappeared 25 years ago. With dangerous figures hiding in plain sight and the past colliding with the present, Lyndy must navigate a path filled with treachery, danger, and a hidden criminal network operating out of the lighthouse’s shadowy caves.
In a race against time, Lyndy is determined to expose the truth behind the death. But with every answer, more questions arise—about who can be trusted and how far the roots of corruption spread beneath the surface of this sleepy coastal town. And as the smuggling ring resurfaces, a deadly game of cat and mouse begins.
