I Liked Nora and Cared What Happened to Her
A small island. Family secrets. A mysterious ditty box.
When Nora Nash inherits an old house from her aunt Bea, she decides to renovate it into a bed-and-breakfast. As she begins the remodel, some would do anything to stop her like Hattie Smith, the owner of a beauty salon, who’s been eyeing the three-story house with the intent of converting it into a day spa.
Nora soon discovers the house has a few secrets of its own; strange noises that wake her up at night, objects that have been moved without her knowledge, and a faint lingering smell of tobacco which all seem to point to an intruder. Could all these strange happenings be linked to the ditty box found inside the house’s walls?
As she digs for clues, Nora begins to suspect her aunt’s death might not have been an accident but cold-blooded murder. She quickly realizes that she needs to solve the mystery before she becomes the next victim.

As Nora digs deeper, she discovers that the person responsible for Colleen’s attack may still be close enough to strike again. To protect an innocent woman and her beloved island home, Nora must decide who to trust before the next secret turns deadly.
