Dead Calm & Carry On
A Bayshore Bluff Mystery
by Lisa D. Welgo
In the quiet coastal town of Bayshore Bluff, Maryland, calm is more than a mood-it's a way of life. And secrets have learned to hide there beautifully.
When bookstore owner Helena Blackstone begins to notice small things that don't quite add up-conflicting paperwork, whispered pressure, and people suddenly encouraged to stay silent-she senses something deeply wrong beneath the town's serene surface.
What first appears to be an unfortunate public incident quickly unravels into a far more unsettling mystery. One built not on violence, but on assumption. Not on force, but on timing. And not on a single villain, but on a system that thrives when no one asks questions.
With the help of a few unlikely allies, Helena must rely on patience, observation, and quiet courage to uncover the truth-before Bayshore Bluff loses control of its future without anyone ever raising their voice.
Dead Calm & Carry On is an atmospheric, intelligent cozy mystery filled with seaside charm, gentle humor, and a compelling twist that challenges everything you think you know about guilt, innocence, and what it truly means to pay attention.
Perfect for readers who love:
Smart, character-driven mysteries
Small-town secrets and coastal settings
Strong female protagonists
Twists rooted in psychology and realism
Cozies without graphic violence
This is the first book in The Bayshore Bluff Mysteries, a series where calm waters hide careful secrets-and noticing them may be the bravest act of all.
