A murder because of an 170year old mystery and treasure. Yes please and thank you. What a great instalment of this series. Did I mention ghosts?!!!

I've been looking forward to this next adventure with Everly and it did not disappoint. I enjoyed the ghostly aspect of it and getting to rejoin the people of Charm, NC. It's always nice to get back there, as it feels like going to visit family. It was fun to see how Everly worked out who was stalking her and also to see her enjoyment of the food and historical items that came into play, even though some of them were used in attempts to scare or kill her. She still tried to stay positive and keep those around her safe. I'm definitely going to miss this town and the people when the series ends.

I'm honestly running out of things to say about this series because I just keep reading them one after the other, I can't get enough. It's such a fun, sweet atmosphere and just the right amount of tension at the end. I figured out who did it for the second time in this one, but that didn't take away any of my enjoyment.
Such a fun series! I'm sad there's only two books left.

One of my favorites in the series.
My favorite thing about this series is that sometimes I think I know what’s happening but I almost never do, and this one remained true to that.
I liked that we saw more into the will-they-won’t-they between Everly and Grady, but they still haven’t! I’m getting so impatient.
I love this series and recommend to any cozy mystery fan

Closely Harbored Secrets the 5th instalment in the A Seaside Cafe Mystery Series by Bree Baker. I loved visiting Charm, NC over my Christmas holidays! I wasn’t disappointed either another great instalment to the series.
This time it’s all about secrets and maps as Everly tries to solve the murder before someone takes her out. One of my favourite things about the books is the sense of family, friendship and how the community comes together and rallies behind the aunts. I love Everly’s aunts and Amelia, I was a little worried we were in for a love triangle but the ending was a nice surprise.
I love Lou and Maggie her adopted pets which play a big role this time and we learn more about the people they are named after.
I didnt suspect who the killer was until Everly did, as there were just enough red herrings and twists and turns to keep me enthralled and guessing.
I cannot recommend this series enough!

I am so happy I finally decided to binge read this series. Everly is one of those characters that I just instantly liked. She is a magnet for dead bodies, but she is strong and independent, even if she is also a bit stubborn as well. I also like where things are headed between her and Grady. The secondary cast of characters are delightful and some a bit quirky. The mystery was a page turner and kept me guessing. Everly came a bit too close for comfort to serious injury in this book. Let's hope she isn't in as much danger in the next book.
