Seaside Secrets

Twenty-seven-year-old Clarissa Abbot is a minister who has just gotten her first full-time position as pastor at Shore Side Community Church in Shore Side, New Jersey. As if her new job is not challenging enough, she has further difficulties when a member of her congregation dies in the hospital under suspicious circumstances before he can pass along an important piece of information about a mysterious past event.Feeling guilty because she could not convince the man to confide in her before his death, Clarissa begins an investigation, which quickly leads back to an unsolved murder that happened in Shore Side over fifty years ago. In addition to this, a shady real estate deal potentially involving the church brings her into contact with a handsome young lawyer in her congregation, whose interest in her is more than professional. All of this leads Clarissa to conclude that being a minister is more complicated than she ever expected.
