The dream summer getaway or the setting for the perfect crime?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Lottie has saved all year for her family vacation by the sea with her husband and young son. But as soon as they arrive at their rental, it is clear they have made a huge mistake coming here...

Next door, Olivia looks like just another wealthy out-of-towner buying up local property, only to leave it empty for ten months of the year. But Olivia has a secret plan for her second home...

When one of the houses goes up in flames, and a body is pulled from the ashes, the secrets both Lottie and Olivia have been keeping threaten to destroy their families.

How far would one of them go to keep the truth locked behind closed doors?
