The Dune House Mystery series by Cindy Bell is a long-running cozy mystery series with 38 books published between 2014 and 2026. The series gets going with several entries in 2014 — Seaside Secrets, Boats and Bad Guys, Treasured History, and Hidden Hideaways — establishing a seaside or coastal setting that runs through the titles well into the later books. The alliterative title pattern (Pelicans, Piers and Poison; Sand, Sea and a Skeleton; Sunsets, Smoke and Suspicion) is consistent across most of the run.

After a steady output through the 2010s, the series hit its most productive stretch in 2023 and 2024, with four books each year. It continues to add new entries, with Twilight, Tulips, and Trickery the most recent at 2026. The sheer length of the series means there is plenty of material for readers who prefer a familiar setting and recurring characters — starting from Seaside Secrets is the recommended route into the numbered books.
