A peaceful Christmas in Serenity Bay? Think again! Chloe Walsh's skills as location manager for the beautiful seaside village she calls home have come up trumps again, and Serenity Bay is now the setting for cosy crime drama The Montgomery Mysteries, starring amateur sleuth Dominic Montgomery and his crime-solving dog, Agatha. But Chloe is in a race against time. Filming has to finish before the village Midwinter Festival but schedules are tight ? and a mystery saboteur is intent on slowing things down even further. Not only is Chloe facing problems with the shoot, she also has some personal conundrums to solve ? a diva actor has commandeered her flat, her mum is having a late mid-life crisis, plus she has no idea what to buy for her Christmas-obsessed boyfriend! Can Chloe sort out her life and save Christmas for an entire village? Sequel to Summer at Serenity Bay. AUTHOR: Having failed miserably with every New Year's resolution that involved diets, one year, Helen Bridgett set herself a completely different goal - to write a novel and give it as a Christmas present. Having written one, she couldn't stop! 2021 sees the publication of Helen's debut crime novel featuring Professor Maxie Reddick. One by One will be published in January by Ruby Fiction. Previously, Helen has written feel-good fiction. Her first novel, The Mercury Travel Club featured laugh-out-loud characters who took on a life of their own resulting in the sequel, The Heat is On. Then, in 2020 a new set of characters took up the main stage in Serenity Bay - a fictional village on the glorious Northumberland coast.
