Death by Beach Read

The seaside backdrop really comes alive; I wonder if Eva Gates based it on a specific place or just imagined the perfect coastal town.

Their passion for reading added so much charm, but I also found myself rooting for their personal growth. How do you think the author balances character development with the mystery?

It makes for such a fun, lighthearted atmosphere, but I’m curious whether that was a plot device or based on personal experiences.
