Overview
Escape to the windswept cliffs and hidden coves of Cornwall and Ireland with The Summer Suspense Mysteries, five standalone novels of romance, secrets, and suspense from bestselling author LJ Ross. Each book follows a different woman whose seemingly perfect life is upended by a shocking discovery, a dangerous stranger, or a long-buried truth she can no longer outrun. Set against dramatic coastal backdrops, these page-turning stories blend atmospheric mystery with emotional drama, making this five-book paperback set an ideal pick for fans of character-driven fiction, seaside suspense, and stories about women rebuilding their lives against the odds.
About the Books
The Summer Suspense Mysteries collects five emotionally charged standalone novels set along the dramatic British and Irish coastline. In The Cove, a woman who appears to have everything — beauty, success, and a loving fiancé — sees her carefully built world begin to unravel the day everything suddenly, irrevocably changes. The Creek follows a mother who flees to her grandfather's remote cottage at Frenchman's Creek in the dead of night, carrying little more than a suitcase, her young son, and a secret she can no longer outrun. The Bay introduces a respected detective sergeant and pillar of the community in the picturesque seaside town of St Ives, whose quiet, well-regarded reputation hides a far more complicated truth underneath. The Haven centers on a recognizable Irish newsreader who cannot walk the streets of Dublin without being approached by fans, yet lives with a private struggle few would ever guess. The Lizard rounds out the collection with the proud owner of a brand-new Cornish restaurant who also volunteers with a tight-knit local lifeboat crew, a dangerous calling that puts her life on the line to save others. Across all five books, Ross explores identity, family, hidden danger, and quiet heroism against richly atmospheric coastal settings, weaving together suspense and genuine emotional depth in equal measure.
