With a flood watch on her emotions and her life in a tangle, will Cassidy find the truth? Or will her past finally drown her?
Storm Surge (Book 3)

The first books in a wonderful mystery series. The characters are real and easy to follow. Enjoy reading how they all fit together. Great mystery series.
I loved these mysteries! Great plots!
I haven’t read a book by Christy Barritt yet that I didn’t like. All of her Lantern Beach books are a “can’t put down” book.
Christy Barritt has turned out to be one of my favorite authors. Her stories are always clean, which is great The plots are well developed, with some good suspense thrown in.
A page tuner!! Entertaining and easy to read.
Really enjoyed this set of 3 books which contain action, mystery, romance and an inspirational message for the trials and near tragic situations the characters face in each of the books. I look forward to reading more in the Lantern Beach Mysteries series!
I really liked the characters and the story line. It was faced paced and entertaining.
I believe some of the situations are not realistic, but that is one of the reasons fiction is entertaining.
I love this series! I read them all within a few days.
I love this series! The main characters are so easy to like and root for….but still with plenty of quirky personality. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
All of her books are wonderful. Easy, fun and a good read.
It was great! Kept me guessing.
The first 3 books in this series have been a delight to read and I plan on reading the rest of the series.
I just finished all three of these books. I couldn’t help but but start the next book as soon as I finished one. The main character is smart and strong but I love her development as she begins to find out there are people who can be trusted and she begins to soften her heart. She doesn’t compromise her street smarts or her physical strength as she does it either. I love this character. The writing is excellent. I strongly recommended these books.
Really enjoyed the first three books. Would love to read the rest of the series.
Christy Barritt is a master of the inspirational suspense genre. You will fall in love with the Lantern Beach community and want to help Cassidy solve crimes and protect her true identity. What a treat to have three books in one available for some happy binge reading.
I received a complimentary copy without obligation. This review is my opinion.
Hidden Currents
Hidden Currents is the first in the new Lantern Beach Mysteries by Christy Barritt. I absolutely loved this story. I couldn’t put it down. Cassidy, a detective from Seattle, is on the run from a dangerous gang who wants her dead. She is hiding out in a small town in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Not long after she arrives, a murder takes place and Cassidy can’t help but try to solve it. It’s just in her blood! Even though they got off to a rocky start, she ends up teaming up with her neighbor Ty, a former Navy Seal, to help figure out who the murderer is. All the while, Cassidy has to continue to watch her back to make sure no one has figured out where she is. This novel is full of nail-biting suspense, quirky characters, and even an ice cream truck full of mystery.
Flood Watch
Flood Watch is the second in the Lantern Beach Mysteries by Christy Barritt. This was a great follow-up to Hidden Currents. I just couldn’t put it down. Cassidy, a detective from Seattle, is on the run from a dangerous gang who wants her dead. She is still hiding out in a small town in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. She teams up again with her neighbor Ty, a former Navy Seal, to help their friend who is accused of being involved in the disappearance of one her competitors. Cassidy puts her detective skills to work again to help her friend. All the while, Cassidy has to continue to watch her back to make sure no one has figured out where she is. This novel is full of nail-biting suspense, quirky characters, budding romance, and even an ice cream truck full of mystery.
Storm Surge
Storm Surge, book 3 in the Lantern Mysteries series, is a great addition to the series. As I have come to expect, it is fast-paced, full of mystery, and full of the same fabulous and somewhat quirky characters I have grown to love. This series is a must-read! You will not be disappointed!
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
These books are great reading over and over. They are exciting, decent, and action packed.
It’s not that it’s bad it’s just that it’s not a good representation of this authors work. It’s a cute light read you can’t take seriously because it’s just filled with too many eye rolling, unbelievable incidents. It is a continual saga I will probably not finish at this point but I will check out some of this authors other works.
