The Guest in Room Seven - A Coastal Inn Cozy Mystery with a Cold Case Secret

A fresh start at an old Maine guesthouse.
A hidden letter behind faded wallpaper.
A woman the town insists left willingly.

Former FBI archivist Evelyn "Evie" Hart comes to Harbor House hoping for a quiet new beginning. After inheriting her late aunts coastal inn in Harbor Point, Maine, she expects dust, repairs, and difficult memories.

Instead, she finds Room Seven.

The room has been locked for years. Inside, Evie discovers a sealed letter hidden behind the wallpaper, written by Clara Whitmore — a guest who vanished from Harbor House twenty years earlier.

The town says Clara left on her own.

The letter says otherwise.

As Evie follows a trail of altered ledgers, missing guestbook pages, old photographs, and long-buried secrets, she discovers that Clara had been asking dangerous questions about one of Harbor Points most powerful families.

Someone erased Clara from the records.
Someone turned her disappearance into a convenient story.
And someone in Harbor Point still knows what happened the night the tide came in.

With the help of a skeptical sheriff, a sharp-tongued diner owner, and a judgmental old cat named Ledger, Evie must uncover the truth before Harbor House becomes a place where secrets stay buried forever.

The Guest in Room Seven is Book 1 in The Harbor House Mysteries, a coastal cozy mystery series featuring cold cases, small-town secrets, old letters, a clever female sleuth, and a Maine guesthouse where every room has a story.
