Anchored In Deception. The Harborview Cafe Mysteries, #7

In a small Maine fishing village, the past has a way of catching up with you... Tammy Harper's Daily Catch Café is buzzing with preparations for Harborview's fiftieth anniversary time capsule ceremony when beloved town historian Walter Hayes is found dead in the storage room of Harbor Books. The medical examiner says allergic reaction. The town assumes it's a tragic accident. But Tammy knows that a man who spent his whole life being careful about his severe peanut allergy wouldn't suddenly make a fatal mistake. Walter's wife Patricia was about to be left penniless after forty-three years of marriage.
His former student Timothy Weber lost custody of his children because of Walter's damning testimony. The town archivist Diane Crawford has a decades-old secret that Walter was threatening to expose. And the young librarian Dylan Holloway watched his career ambitions crumble when Walter sabotaged his grant application. When Tammy discovers that someone deliberately tampered with Walter's thermos-and took the EpiPen that could have saved his life-she realizes this was no accident.
It was murder, carefully planned by someone who knew Walter's habits, his routines, and exactly how to make his death look like a tragic mistake. Armed with strong coffee, her talent for reading people, and support from Harbor Master Sawyer Grant, Tammy peels back layers of old grudges, buried scandals, and a betrayal that cuts deeper than anyone imagined. But in a close-knit community where history runs deep, the truth might be hiding behind the person everyone least suspects.
