When the town clock strikes late, Virginia Hale hears more than a mistake. She hears a thief’s timing.A string of precision thefts threatens the regatta that keeps a New England harbor alive. Virginia, a gifted clockmaker, wants only one thing: the truth set right. Marcus Rowan, a by the book Pinkerton, wants a clean case that won’t rattle donors or headlines. Neither wants a partner. Both need one.Scratches on brass hide a cipher. Velvet smudges dim the lighthouse beam. Buoy weights carry stolen parts. As Virginia and Marcus follow the trail from shop benches to storm lit cliffs, their methods clash, then click. She reads patterns in gears and tides. He reads people and risk. When a smear campaign frames Virginia and the committee benches her, she breaks the second code alone, and the proof points straight to a respected neighbor with perfect alibis.If you love cozy historical mysteries with a slow burn romance and a bright, satisfying reveal, step into The Clockmaker’s Secret. Turn the first page and follow the beam to a finale where the light burns steady, the town stands together, and two stubborn hearts finally keep the same time.
