A haunted beach bungalow. A shady real estate developer. A mystery that’s dying to be solved...

When Tessa Brightwell is jailed for a crime she swears she didn’t commit, her cousin Sage is called in to manage the Seaglass Bungalow—an aging seaside rental in the heart of sunny Seashell Key, Florida. But the Bungalow isn’t just in need of repairs. Guests are fleeing after strange noises, eerie cold spots, and ghostly messages appear in the mirrors.

Word spreads fast, and soon a pair of fame-hungry ghost-hunters arrive with cameras and chaos. Enter Preston Larrabee: charming investor with an offer too good to be true—and a past he’s desperate to bury.

But Sage isn’t scared of ghosts... she’s scared of liars.

With help from Ben, the island’s resident fix-it genius, a teenage vlogger in oversized Jimmy Buffett shirts, and a retired professor with a knack for tech sleuthing, Sage sets out to expose a scheme that could cost her cousin everything.

Can they reveal the truth before the final sale goes through? Or will the haunting at the Seaglass Bungalow become all too real?

Perfect for fans of:
