Tempest in a Teacup is book 3 in the Beach Rose Cottage Mysteries series.
Liza Bowen agrees to help Cape May resident Allie Newell plan the renovation and conversion of an old boardinghouse into a bed-and-breakfast. As Liza explores the building, she and Allie discover a delicate porcelain cup hidden beneath a floorboard. Allie reveals that her ancestor, Jimmy Hopkins, was a lighthouse keeper in 1847 and was blamed for the wreck of the Amelia Belle, a merchant ship carrying valuable cargo like the porcelain cup. However, Allie's family is positive that Jimmy was wrongfully accused despite the rumors.
When renowned historian Dr. Paul Pendergrass arrives in town with his new book about Cape May lighthouses that seemingly confirms Jimmy's guilt, Allie asks Liza to help her prove the man's innocence. As Liza searches for evidence in Captain Miles Grimshaw's journals, she receives threatening notes warning her to stop. Liza must uncover the truth before she--and the true story--are silenced for good.
