In Bayshore Bluff, secrets do not stay buried forever.
When festival volunteer Ashley Thorne returns to the coastal town she once fled, she never expects to uncover the truth behind her mother Lily's mysterious disappearance thirty years earlier. What begins as a quiet summer festival quickly unravels into something far darker when hidden tunnels, long-buried ledgers, and whispered waterfront rumors pull Helena Blackstone, Margo Thorne, Zinnia Jax, and Deputy Sebastian Keys into a dangerous investigation that reaches deep beneath the town itself.
As old loyalties fracture and trusted names become tangled in decades of silence, the women of Bayshore Bluff must confront a painful truth: some secrets survive because good people were too afraid to speak.
But Lily Thorne left behind more than unanswered questions.
She left clues.
Rich with atmosphere, emotional depth, humor, friendship, and twisting suspense, The Very Alive Corpse is a haunting coastal mystery about grief, courage, betrayal, and the truths that refuse to disappear beneath the tide.
Perfect for readers who love cozy mysteries with heart, layered characters, emotional suspense, and unforgettable small-town secrets.
