Master Gunnery Sergeant Bradley Harding arrives in the cozy coastal town of Blocker's Bluff, South Carolina, looking for a place to start a new life once his current enlistment ends. But that all depends on finding-and confronting-a person from his past.
While renting a room at the quaint Baxter House, his search for truth uncovers long-buried secrets, and an elderly matriarch will do everything she can to keep them hidden from family and loved ones.
Still wrestling with his own demons from combat, Harding hopes to help out a former comrade who lost her arm during a mission he was leading. Wracked with guilt about her injury, he enlists the aid of Jessica's roommate-as well as a very special canine.
Meanwhile, Molly Dickson, the chief of police, contends with a vicious attack on her husband and his dog. Normally able to restrain her emotions, the case takes its toll and makes her question if a career change might be in order.
For fans of Robert B. Parker, Catherine Coulter, and J. D. Robb, Baxter House is a charming Southern drama about forgiveness and new beginnings filled with mystery, suspense, and a dash of humor that will uplift and inspire.
