Death in Sandpiper Bay by Traci Hall and Patrice Wilton

Hello my cozy friends,

Today I am reviewing Death in Sandpiper Bay the 1st instalment in the “A Riley Harper Mystery” by Traci Hall and Patrice Wilton.  What a great start to a new series!  



DEATH IN SANDPIPER BAY-- A Riley Harper Mystery is Book One in this exciting new series. Written by USA Today and NY Times bestselling authors, Traci Hall and Patrice Wilton who have teamed up again to bring you more mysteries to enjoy!

Sixteen months ago, Police Officer Riley Harper and her partner were on surveillance in downtown Phoenix. The suspect rushed from his apartment building, hands raised, when her partner fired and shot the man in the chest. It was a bad kill and she'd had to testify against her former brother-in-arms. Labeled a snitch, Riley has been bombarded by the police, the media, and her former friends. Her reputation is in tatters and her career in Phoenix over. On leave since then, she's only had one job offer…from a place called Sandpiper Bay, a remote island off the coast of Maine. Riley expects an uncomplicated life for her mother, and her daughter, who moved with her. Nothing more dangerous than settling feuds among the fishermen. She is dead wrong.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this mystery and getting to know Riley, her daughter Kyra, and her mum Susan.  I love the setting of Sandpiper Bay a small island off the coast of Maine and the locals all seem like a great bunch of side characters.  I can’t wait to learn more about each of them over the course of the series.  Only problem with reading in one day is the long wait till book 2 releases!

The mystery is interesting and well plotted, with lots of red herrings to keep you guessing. In fact I was second-guessing myself on whodunnit right to the very end.

I highly recommend this book to all my cozy lover friends.
