Books like Whiskey Beach by Nora Roberts
Eli Landon, a Boston lawyer, has survived a year of intense public scrutiny and police investigations after being accused of his soon‑to‑be ex‑wife’s murder—though he was never arrested. Seeking quiet, he retreats to Bluff House on Whiskey Beach, a stately estate that has guarded its shore—and its secrets—for more than three hundred years.
At Bluff House, Eli is welcomed by Abra Walsh, a talented housekeeper, yoga instructor, jewelry maker, and massage therapist. Her skill, courage, and unwavering loyalty prove essential as she helps Eli regain control of his life and clear his name. Yet as their bond deepens, they uncover a centuries‑old conspiracy that pulls them into a dangerous web of vengeance and betrayal—one that could destroy Eli forever.
Set against the idyllic backdrop of the New England coast, "Whiskey Beach" weaves suspense, mystery, and the resilience of human connection into a gripping tale of justice and restoration.
