The Mystery of the Seaside Treasure: A cozy crime mystery set in an English village (The Antique Shop Mysteries Book 7)

Lina Townend is off to the seaside — but her knack for sniffing out bargains lands her in the middle of a deadly mystery when she discovers a stolen sculpture.
Lina isn’t thrilled when her beloved mentor Griff suggests a weekend getaway to Torquay. Instead of sun, sand and ice creams, an uninspiring antique fair and a fancy-dress ballroom dance are on the agenda.
The fair is as boring as she expects — until a miniature Japanese sculpture catches her eye. It was last seen in the home of an elderly churchgoer Griff recently befriended, tucked among a bunch of seaside trinkets . . . right before it disappeared.
Is the sculpture connected to a recent series of violent thefts from churches? But why target a small, chipped antique when the infirm old lady’s house is filled with treasures?
Determined to solve the mystery, Lina dives into the investigation. But if she’s not careful, she won’t be swimming in Torquay’s deep blue sea — she’ll be sleeping with the fishes.
