The dangerous beauty of Lavender Tides is harboring secrets that reach around the world.
Ellie Blackmore is making a name for herself as a house flipper. But when her sister Mackenzie disappears, Ellie can’t focus on anything but uncovering what happened. Her only clue is the bloodstain on the deck of Mackenzie’s boat. Ellie knows her sister isn’t on the best of terms with her ex-husband, Jason, but he wouldn’t kill her—would he?
Coast Guard intelligence officer Grayson Bradshaw believes Mackenzie faked her own death after stealing a seized cocaine shipment. The problem is convincing Ellie, who seems to view him as the true enemy.
Both Ellie and Grayson want truth, but truth—and family—is often more complex than it first appears. From international terrorism to the peaceful lavender fields of Puget Sound, The House at Saltwater Point is a thrilling race to uncover the truth before it’s too late.

Summary
From: Rebecca Maney
Book Title: The House at Saltwater Point Book Author: Colleen Coble What do you like about this book:
3.5 stars
"As a sworn civilian intelligence investigator for the Coast Guard Investigative Services, or CGIS, for the past three years he'd been on the trail of Tarek Nasser, but the terrorist was a phantom, and every time Grayson got close to apprehending him, he'd slipped away . . . . . "
Or had he?
Arriving in Lavender Tides, Washington, Grayson Bradshaw believes that a huge cocaine theft might lead him closer to a known terrorist, whose insatiable need for cash might provide the money trail that he so desperately needs to finally apprehend his nemesis, Tarek Nasser. Coincidentally, the cozy coastal town is also where he grew up, having just been discovered by his biological sister, but having almost no recollection of her or anything else in Lavender Tides. When his first acquaintance is the sister of his prime suspect, Grayson is actually struck by Ellie Blackmore's staunch loyalty to her sister MacKenzie, who has tragically disappeared without a trace.
Ellie Blackmore is a "hammer girl"; a successful "flipper" in a town that is begging to be renovated and appreciated for its charming ambience. When CGIS agent Grayson Bradshaw invades Ellie's personal space, asking a lot of pointed questions about her sister, Ellie wants nothing more to do with the handsome Coastie. However, as the nature of his investigation deepens, Ellie begins to wonder if she really knows her sister at all; things are simply not adding up. On the other hand, could it be to her advantage to get to know Grayson Bradshaw a whole lot better?
Enjoy Coble's accelerated pace, as the residents of Lavender Tides run a race against time to thwart an international terrorist plot.
