Bodies and Secrets Uncovered

Clue in the Clam is the fifteenth book in Kathi Daley’s heartwarming The Inn at Holiday Bay series. The setting is charming, and the well-developed characters are three-dimensional, compassionate, and caring. The storyline is well plotted, and there are lots of twists and red herrings in the complex mysteries contained within this book. The storyline flows smoothly, and the book is a clean read with a perfect blend of mystery, heartache, joy, and caring with a touch of sweet romance. Every time I pick up one of Ms. Daley’s books, I know I’m in for a treat, and I’ve never been disappointed. I highly recommend this series to readers who enjoy well-crafted cozy mysteries.

After Abby Sullivan’s lost her husband and their infant son in a tragic accident, she moved to Holiday Bay, Maine, opened the Inn at Holiday Bay, made a new life for herself, and found a home and a family. Georgia Carter, who has also overcome obstacles in her life, is the inn’s talented cook/baker and manager, and she and her Newfoundland dog, Ramos, live with Abby, Rufus, a Maine Coon, and Molly, a terrier mix, in a cottage on the property. Georgia’s cable cooking show, Cooking with Georgia, is doing well. Jeremy Slater, who lives in the inn’s basement apartment with his young niece, Annabelle, is a valuable asset who helps with the inn’s day-to-day operations.

Holiday Bay is preparing for their annual Clam Bake week. Abby and Georgia decided to have the inn’s murder mystery dinner and clam bake on a private island owned by Belmont Salinger. After Georgia is contacted by a representative of the theater group about needing photographs of the island, Tanner agrees to use his boat to make a trip to the island. Georgia invites Abby and Colt to join them, and they make plans to go out to dinner afterward. Unfortunately, their plans change when Abby comes upon the body of a local town councilman, Oliver Halifax. As Police Chief Colt Wilder investigates, he and Abby uncover secrets harbored by several local residents.

Always interesting to meet new characters, mystery continues

It is a full house at the Inn on Holiday Bay as the town celebrates the clam influence and the Inn hosts a murder mystery dinner. Not all the guests have checked in to join the festivities, however.
It is always great to meet new people and catch up with favorite friends and guests from past books.
Abby and staff are figuring out how much to develop and extend the inn property and there is a debated development project for the shoreline. So when a body is discovered on the island where the mystery dinner is going to be held, people speculate about the motive.
Past mysteries are also continued in this book, and romantic elements play a role.
Great story with many emotional elements.

Awesome Mystery

The Clue in the Clam is a great addition to the Inn at Holiday Bay series.
Aside from the usual gang at the inn, and the guests with their interesting stories, Abby is expecting a short-term guest that she has been looking forward to meeting, Sydney Whitmore, a forensic psychologist who had known Abby’s late husband, Ben.
The quaint little seacoast town of Holiday Bay, Maine is hosting its annual clam bake with a murder mystery dinner, catered by Abby’s business partner and best friend Georgia.
A phone call from the theater company who is putting on the murder mystery portion of the event sends Georgia, Abby, Jeremy, Colt and Tanner out to take pictures of the island where the clam bake is to be held just in time to discover a dead body.
There is plenty more mystery to be found in this book, along with a bit or romance and lots of friendship and fun. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone, so I will just say that it is a wonderful book and I highly recommend it.

Clue in the Clam Earns 4.5/5 Clam-Conundrums...Entertaining Fun!

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2021

Clam-tastic! Kathi Daley has done well with the fifteenth book in her Inn at Holiday Bay series with an inn full of guests. Abby Sullivan and her BFF Georgia are also making the final arrangements on an exciting murder mystery and clambake event. To include more participants, the event was moved from the Inn to a nearby island, and serving a gourmet clambake per Georgia and enjoying a fun evening of mystery organized by a local theatre group has made it highly anticipated. A last minute request by the theatre group for photos of the island has Abby and Colt and Georgia and Tanner planning a double date. However, the discovery of a dead body on the beach, oddly posed, and holding a curious clue is an obstacle for which they didn’t plan. Then, more bodies, posed suspiciously in a public manner, cause Abby and Colt to team up with ex-CIA forensic psychologist, Sydney Whitmore. Her profile is a worrisome...the killer is local!

The multiple murder mystery is clever and woven in and out of several intriguing side stories: a follow-up on the grave site found on Abby’s property, intriguing stories about an environmental impact research, a relationship triangle, and a controversy over a mega resort project. The crime with a clever details and motive does take a backseat at times when addressing everyday responsibilities and improvements to the Inn, prepping for the upcoming events, and updates on relationships, but nothing too deep to interfere with the main story. Along with more insights into Abby’s late husband, a new character in the Daley universe is introduced with a bit of the premise of the new series; Sydney Whitmore will have her own cozy mystery series, The Resort at Castaway Bay, as a forensic psychologist working with a unique civilian investigative team. Although the first murder was discovered by our Abby and friends, the subsequent discoveries occur off the page along with some of the clues. Clue reviews, scenarios, and wrap ups are often presented when characters get together; more likely this is reality.

Eagerly waiting for the next book!

The Inn at Holiday Bay is hosting a clam bake on the island. During their pre visit; Abby (owner of The Inn); Colt (Local Police Sheriff and Abbys partner): Georgia (manager of The Inn) and Tanner (neighbour of The Inn where he trains defence dogs, and Georgia's parrner); stumble across the body of a local councillor, someone who was behind getting a new, huge, holiday resort built in the area.

While the weekend residents of The Inn need looking after, Colt is trying to find out who killed the man; and when more bodies are found, it becomes imperative the murderer is caught before even more people are killed.

A cosy mystery series, with an underlying story yet to be revealed. Best read in order to preserve continuity of the storyline. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next release.

.. was a huge disappointment.. no real reason why he wouldn't have told Abby so all pretty pointless..

With that falling flat we needed a good strong case and once again we got a damp squib fizzled a bit and then went out.. seven deadly sins? Men's retreat? Big development? Too many connections and too many potential victims.. all stretched a bit too far..
