Every House
Has a Secret
Some Are Deadly
Every Harbor Has Its Secrets
On the snowy coast of New England, Calder House Inn has watched over Brindle Harbor for generations. Its rooms have held family celebrations, whispered confessions, holiday guests, and secrets some people would rather leave locked away.
When former stage actor Simon Calder returns home, he brings with him an unusual gift: he can tell when someone is performing.
A rehearsed answer. A pause in the wrong place. In Brindle Harbor, those details can mean the difference between a harmless secret and a deadly one.
Calder House Mysteries is the new cozy mystery series by author Paul Shearman, featuring former actor Simon Calder and Police Chief Hannah Mercer in the harbor town of Brindle Harbor.
