Deadly Coast

The tension builds so effectively—I'm curious what inspired the choice to set so much of the mystery by the sea and how the setting shaped the story.

I loved getting to know the characters, but the story felt a bit slow in the middle. Was that a deliberate choice to deepen the suspense or just the natural flow?

The setting feels so vivid and isolated, which added to the stakes. I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or research for this environment.
