About the Book
The House on Blackwater Bay is Book 1 of The Blackwater Bay Mysteries, a haunting Florida Gothic murder mystery about old money, buried secrets, and a house that refuses to forget.
Vivian Gray returns to Blackwater Bay after inheriting her grandmother’s decaying waterfront estate. She plans to sell the house quickly, leave town, and bury the past for good.
Then a powerful real estate developer is found dead in the mangroves behind her property.
As suspicion turns toward Vivian, she discovers that Blackwater House is tied to another mystery: the disappearance of Lila Wren, a seventeen year old girl who vanished after a party there in 1998. The town has always claimed Lila ran away, but inside the locked rooms of the house, Vivian finds newspaper clippings, hidden files, old photographs, and evidence that suggests something far darker happened that night.
With the help of Sheriff Caleb Rourke, Vivian begins to uncover the truth her family, the police, and Blackwater Bay’s wealthiest residents tried to bury. But every answer leads deeper into a world of old money, false innocence, and carefully protected lies.
In Blackwater Bay, the dead do not stay silent forever.
And some houses are inherited for a reason.
