The Maggie, P.I. Mystery series by Rose Pressey places its PI protagonist at the beach. Crime Wave (2013) and Murder is a Beach (2013) established the coastal setting, and the series grew to nine books through Swept Away (2021).
The titles play on beach and water themes, from Wipe Out and Pier Pressure to Dead in the Water and In Too Deep. The books pair beachside atmosphere with cozy mystery plotting.
