Dune Estate Murder - At thirty, Safia Devereaux never expected to be running a business. Then again, she never expected to collect ex-husbands the way some people collect Beanie Babies. Especially not in 1995 Dune Point, Michigan, where her two failed marriages happen to involve the town's police chief and its mayor.

Determined to start over, Safia launches Safia's Seasonal House Services, opening and closing vacation homes along Lake Michigan's windswept dunes. Her two high school best friends pitch in to help, forming what they jokingly call the Lake Effect Ladies. Armed with a color-coded filing system, a cordless phone with terrible reception, and sheer optimism, Safia is determined to prove she can make it on her own.

At least one member of the team has complete confidence in her. Unfortunately, that member is Beeper, her pot-bellied pig. Meanwhile, a controversial condo development is splitting Dune Point down the middle. Tempers flare hotter than a dashboard cassette player in July, and an out-of-towner is accused of murdering the developer behind the project.

Everyone else seems convinced they've got the right culprit. Safia isn't so sure.

Partly because she's stubborn.

Partly because she's been wrong about important men before.

As Safia digs deeper into the town's secrets, she discovers that some people will do anything to keep the past buried beneath Dune Point's sandy shores. Solving murders wasn't part of the business plan.

Neither was becoming the killer's next target.
