      Nora Best is enjoying the quiet life. Now a seventh-grade teacher in a small peninsula town in the Pacific Northwest. No drama. No danger. And most importantly - no one turning up dead... Until they do, that it is! Local environmental activist Ward Austin is found murdered and Nora is once again thrown into a complicated web of secrets and lies.

      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. Her biggest worry is keeping up with her quick-witted bunch of students. No drama. No danger. And most importantly - no one turning up dead.

      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!
