A tense small town mystery that packs a big punch starring Nora Best.
Nora Best is enjoying the quiet life . . . finally. She’s parked up the Airstream on a quiet stretch of beach and is now a seventh-grade teacher in a small peninsula town in the Pacific Northwest.

Until they do, that is . . .
When a local environmental activist – and dad to one of her most troublesome students – is killed, Nora once again finds herself in the thick of an investigation that threatens her new-found peace. She soon uncovers that Ward’s death is most likely linked to the building of the school’s emergency tsunami tower – a project financed by Ward’s ex-wife’s new husband . . . and one that is testing the town’s loyalty.
With emotions, and gossip, running high, in a community where everyone knows everyone else’s secrets, Nora is in a race against time to get answers before fall storms slam their vulnerable Pacific Coast peninsula putting everyone’s lives in danger!
