Synopsis

From Book :

Homecomings can be murder. When Amanda Parker returns to the small seaside town where she lived for two years while in witness protection, she finds that she left a piece of herself behind.

Literally.

Homecoming by the Sea: A ghost image of her alias, Alyson Prescott, has been living in her house for the past decade waiting rather impatiently for her return. Unsure how to handle this rather alarming and amusing circumstance, Amanda seeks out an old friend to help her reconcile the disjointed situation she finds herself in.

Secrets by the Sea: Amanda Parker has returned to the small seaside town where she lived for two years while in witness protection. Now that she has settled in and solved the murder she returned home to solve, she has decided to stay in Cutter's Cove for an extended vacation. Of course, it isn't long before she stumbles across a surprising secret that will require the help of the entire gang to solve.

Missing by the Sea: A Halloween tradition, a ghost with amnesia, and a friend in crisis, collide in this haunting small town paranormal mystery set on the picturesque Oregon Coast. Amanda and the gang stumble upon a ghost who can't seem to remember who she was in life or where she left her body. Unable to move on until these critical questions are answered, the gang slide into sleuth mode to help the confused specter. When a second girl turns up dead and a third goes missing, Amanda realizes the stakes are much higher than she first thought.

Betrayal by the Sea: Amanda and the gang are invited on a small private cruise with just twenty guests and six crew by Mac's rich boyfriend Ty Matthews. They are having the time of their lives until Amanda runs into the ghost of one of the passengers who everyone said debarked at the last port. Realizing the woman had not left the ship as she'd been told but had in fact been murdered, Amanda brings the gang into the investigation in an attempt to find the truth behind the ghost on the cruise ship.

Thanksgiving by the Sea: The luxury cruise taken by Amanda and the gang didn't go exactly as planned, but in the spirit of making lemonade from lemons, Amanda and Trevor decided to spend a few days touring the San Juan Islands. Unfortunately, before the gang even arrives back in Seattle, Amanda receives a call from Woody asking for help. It seems that a local social worker was shot in her driveway after returning home from work. The woman is fighting for her life in the local hospital and Woody is desperately trying to figure out who shot her. Woody hopes that Amanda, who has the ability to talk to ghosts, will be able to expand that ability and speak to the woman who is clinging to life in a coma. Amanda doubts Woody's plan will work but after everything Woody has done to help her she feels she needs to at least try, so she heads home. Once she arrives home she begins having visions of another man being shot. When the man is shot and killed just as she'd imagined she begins to wonder if her powers haven't involved to include premonitions.

Christmas by the Sea: In this Haunting by the Sea Novella, it's Christmas in Cutter's Cove and the town is all decked out for the holiday. Amanda is out and about working on a photoshoot for a contest run by a popular magazine when she comes across the body of a young woman frozen in the snow. On the surface, the death looks to be an accidental overdose, but Amanda isn't buying it, so she, along with Trevor and Alyson, set out to discover what really happened. Meanwhile, Donovan is concerned about the anonymous texts which have been sent to Amanda's phone, Mac is spending time with Ty, and a new puppy wanders into Amanda's life.
