A silly ghost story? Or did someone get away with murder...

Megan Henny takes a day trip to a lighthouse just off the rugged Washington coast. Along with her trusty Great Dane, Fred, she comes across a haunting legend. Thirty years ago, a woman startlingly similar to herself, disappeared from the charming coastal town of Seacrest. With no clues to follow except a noose hanging from the branches of a nearby tree, did someone get away with murder? Or could something darker be haunting the coastline?

Together with Fred, Megan digs into the past. But what she finds are chilling memories that mix truth with ghost stories. Late one night, she discovers a noose in the forest behind her house and fears she could be next. Will Megan and Fred realize just where the danger is coming from, or will it catch them unaware?

5.0 out of 5 stars Was it just a legend?

This the first book in the new Megan Henny cozy mystery series. Megan has just recently moved to Seacrest. For a fun day away, Megan loads up her Great Dane Fred and goes to a nearby lighthouse. She comes across the legend of a lady who had disappeared from Seacrest 30 years before. Was this just legend or was it for real, and has it just put her and Fred in danger? I loved this book and especially that big, goofy dog! Can't wait for more to come!

Megan goes to Sheepherder's Island with her Great Dane, Fred. There she learns of a ghost story about a woman named Christine who disappeared 30 years earlier. After being likened to Christine, Megan begins to look into Christine's story. She receives warnings not to look into Christine's story, but she also sees the ghost. Is it Christine's ghost or the ghost of the wife of a sailor who went out on a stormy night, never to return?

I liked Megan. I liked that she wanted to solve the case of Christine's disappearance. She is a newcomer to Seacrest, but she's trying to find her way in a business as well as the community. She hears different stories about the ghost from different people. She does figure it out. I never figured it out until she explains it. I liked the town of Seacrest and its people. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens between Megan and Santiago, who has helped her in her new life.

Easy to follow. The ending left one with unanswered questions. No editing errors, gratuitous violence or drag-you-down drama.

Interesting storyline of both a ghost and a missing person. Not much backstory to explain who the lead character is, how she met Fred the dog, came to live in the area, etc. Flexible procedures, actions and reactions. Believable characters and realistic dialogue.

No desire to re-read this story. I may be interested in other works in this series and by this author.

A start to a new series set in Seacrest that Megan and Fred just moved to. Hearing about a thirty year old missing woman has them talking ghosts. Love the story, especially Fred.

Megan is at the cutting edge when myths and legends meet murderous intentions

can she and others survive the secrets?

could there be more to neighbors Margaret and Santiago?

Fred might be clumsy, yet he is very determined and loyal

can Fred sniff out enough truths to save them?

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun new mystery series that keeps you engaged!
Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2023
Megan and her Great Dane, Fred are new residents of the coastal town of Seacrest. She decides to take a day trip to sight see on Sheepherder's Island and visit the lighthouse there. While there she hears to sad story of Christine who was there but went missing 30 years ago. Bearing a similarity to the missing Christine, Megan decides she wants to look into the disappearance. But there are dangerous obstacles that could cost her dearly. Can Megan and Fred solve the disappearance even though she was warned not to investigate Christine's mystery? We are treated to some good characters, ghosts, and a really likeable character in Megan and of course, her partner, Fred! I can't wait to see what happens next! I received and ARC of this book but the opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

1.0 out of 5 stars DNF @ 61%
Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2023

I read 5-6 books a week, but it took me 3 days just to skim through 61% of this book. Worse, every second of it was painful. Descriptions, dialogue, nothing grabbed my attention or made me care about the characters or the mystery. Not even Fred makes me want to continue (and I LOVE Great Danes!). Sorry, but life is too short to waste precious time on uninteresting stories. The cover art for all the books in the series is pretty good though.
