Olivia Limoges has returned to her hometown of Oyster Bay,
North Carolina, but she hasn't been able to rejoin the
small town society. When she is talked into joining
the local writing group, The Bayside Book Writers, she
finds kindred spirits who understand her frustration over
her own stalled writing efforts. Olivia offers to allow the
group to use the old light keeper's cottage on her property
for their meetings. When one of the organizers of the group,
renowned gossip columnist Camden Ford, is found dead, the
writers band together to figure out who bumped off the
tittle-tattler.
As more people are found dead, all with similar puzzling
haiku poems left with the body, Olivia takes a great
interest in helping to find the culprit. With a little
encouragement from recently widowed Police Chief Sawyer
Rawlings, Olivia hopes that she and her friends can use
their love of words to catch the killer before he writes
the last chapter in another life.
In A KILLER PLOT, the first book in the Books By The
Bay series, author Ellery Adams introduces a sizzling
suspenseful story that will keep readers on the edges of
their seats. Her cast of characters are eccentric but
lovable. The elegant and mysterious Olivia makes a grand
leader for the group of wordsmiths. Her relationship
with her black standard poodle, Captain Haviland, is
adorable. A great new addition to the bibliophile genre of
cozies, look for the Books By The Bay mysteries to be a
big hit with readers.
In the small coastal town of Oyster Bay, North
Carolina, you'll find plenty of characters, ne'er-do-wells,
and even a few celebs trying to duck the paparazzi. But when
murder joins this curious community, the Bayside Book
Writers are there to get the story...
Olivia
Limoges is the subject of constant gossip. Ever since she
came back to town-a return as mysterious as her
departure-Olivia has kept to herself, her dog, and her
unfinished novel. With a little cajoling from the eminently
charming writer Camden Ford, she agrees to join the Bayside
Book Writers, break her writer's block, and even make a few
friends...
But when townspeople start turning up
dead with haiku poems left by the bodies, anyone with a
flair for language is suddenly suspect. And it's up to
Olivia to catch the killer before she meets her own surprise
ending.
