Partners in lime / by Baker, Bree.;
Everly will have to go against the tide to crack this case! It all seems to be smooth sailing for Everly Swan. The island of Charm, North Carolina is hosting tons of fun summer events, her iced tea shop is a hit, and best of all, she's finally dating the handsome Detective Grady Hays. But their romantic bubble bursts when tragedy strikes: a surf-pro is found murdered on the beach, killed with a theater prop. Grady follows the evidence, all of which points to Matt, Everly's friend and one-time fling. As Grady does his job, so does Everly-her unofficial chef-turned-sleuth-job, that is. She's determined to clear her friend's name but the arrival of a fancy new teashop and The Town Charmer, a gossip blog determined to rock the boat, complicates things. As Everly tries to keep rumors at bay and investigate the murder (and her new tea rival), the killer leaves a message in the sand...

The way of play : using little moments of big connection to raise calm and confident kids / by Bryson, Tina Payne,author.; Wisen-Vincent, Georgie,author.;
"Most parents understand that unstructured play time is good for a child's attention span and creativity, but new science has discovered that specific, deliberate, playful interaction with parents is the key to their healthy emotional development and later resilience as well. As New York Times bestselling author Tina Payne Bryson and nationally recognized play expert Georgie Wisen-Vincent explain, this doesn't mean getting on all fours and making toy car sounds or enrolling a child in mommy-and-me classes; it's the daily, little moments together that can make the most impact. In The Way of Play, they detail the eight playful techniques that harness this caregiving magic and take just a few minutes, including: Leaning Into Emotions helps your child let go of anxieties, drama and chaotic behavior; Tuning Into the Body teaches a child to practice the art of surfing sensory waves; Storytelling promotes better problem solving; Thinking Out Loud fosters calmer thinking and stronger communication with you, their siblings, and everyone else"--

Agatha Christie : a very elusive woman / by Worsley, Lucy,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.'Nobody in the world was more inadequate to act the heroine than I was.' Why did Agatha Christie spend her career pretending that she was 'just' an ordinary housewife, when clearly she wasn't? As Lucy Worsley says, 'She was thrillingly, scintillatingly modern'. She went surfing in Hawaii, she loved fast cars, and she was intrigued by the new science of psychology, which helped her through devastating mental illness. So why--despite all the evidence to the contrary--did Agatha present herself as a retiring Edwardian lady of leisure? She was born in 1890 into a world which had its own rules about what women could and couldn't do. Lucy Worsley's biography is not just of an internationally renowned bestselling writer. It's also the story of a person who, despite the obstacles of class and gender, became an astonishingly successful working woman. With access to personal letters and papers that have rarely been seen, Lucy Worsley's biography is both authoritative and entertaining and makes us realise what an extraordinary pioneer Agatha Christie was--truly a woman who wrote the twentieth century.

A high tide murder / by George, Emily(Mystery writer),author.;
"What a long, strange trip it's been for Chloe. After her dream of becoming a Parisian pastry chef--and a wife--crashed and burned, she returned home to the seaside town of Azalea Bay, California and opened a cannabis café. Despite some residents' misgivings about how such a business may affect the community's reputation, Baked by Chloe has become a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. Nothing mellows out people like sweet edibles and frothy drinks with a dash of CBD. But when it comes to surfers, the only high they want to ride is on a wave. The annual summer Azalea Bay Pro Challenger Surf Competition is underway, and fan favorite Aaron Gill is treading water. Plagued by professional and personal pressures, he finds himself no longer a top contender, and everyone is saddened when he takes his own life. But his best friend Ethan Wilson knows that despite Aaron's difficulties, suicide was not on his mind, and he begs Chloe to investigate. Against her better judgment, Chloe dives in and discovers Aaron was surrounded by people motivated enough to help him wipe out--permanently."--Back cover.
