Welcome back to Grand Bank, where community is everything-and nothing stays hidden for long.

As Winston Windflower and his RCMP colleagues gather in Marystown, Newfoundland, to celebrate promotions and milestones, trouble is brewing far beyond the banquet hall. A sophisticated heist operation-led by international mobsters and local biker gangs-is sweeping through the province, hitting banks and businesses in a coordinated crime spree that leaves more than just empty vaults behind.

In Book 16 of the Sgt. Windflower Mystery series, bestselling author Mike Martin returns readers to the beloved, fog-kissed coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, where the bonds of family, friendship, and community are as strong as ever. But even in the coziest corners of Grand Bank, danger can creep in like the tide.

Whether you're a longtime fan or meeting Sgt. Windflower for the first time, you'll be swept up in a mystery rich with charm, warmth, por' cakes, movie nights, and the unmistakable magic of a lighthouse that's long overdue for a facelift.
