The Tea and Testament — The Fog Harbor Mysteries Book 6
The Tea and Testament is Book 6 in The Fog Harbor Mysteries, a small-town lgbtq+ cozy mystery by Sebastian Hart. Set in the fog-bound coastal town of Fog Harbor, this closed-case mystery features old records, paper clues, coastal atmosphere, and the slow-burn trust between Elias Thorne and Chief Silas Kane.
A Small-Town LGBTQ+ Cozy Mystery
Tea, trust funds, and signatures that don't match.
A polite tea gathering hides decades of ledger control. Prescriptions, shredded fibers, and old letters prove that being recorded as confused is sometimes the last resistance available.
Elias and Silas follow paper into the Finch & Hale basement — where one signature opens a door the town would rather keep shut.
