Helen returns to her beach home on the Oregon coast after a month-long honeymoon in Europe to find her door ajar, her house ransacked and the body of her house-sitter in the back yard. Hardly a proper homecoming, but semi-retired Helen Bradley is determined to put her house in order and find the killer at all costs. Death on Arrival is a prequel to the Helen Bradley Mysteries--a short read about murder and intrigue on the Oregon Coast.
