Sun, sand, and…sinister secrets. Vacation is meant to be a time of relaxation, but in this gripping collection of short mysteries, the perfect getaway turns deadly. From the sun-drenched shores of Southeastern Virginia to the windswept beauty of the Outer Banks, seemingly ordinary people find themselves tangled in deception, betrayal, and murder. Some kill out of desperation, others for greed, but none show regret—because on these beaches, the only thing more unpredictable than the tides is human nature. Murder never takes a holiday.
