Romance Suspense
Private Investigator Regan Reilly and her husband, Jack "no
relation" Reilly, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, are
about to celebrate their first wedding anniversary. They are
looking forward to a quiet romantic weekend out of town.
Wouldn’t you know their choice of destination provides them
with anything but! Regan and Jack had considered going to Bermuda, but instead
they decide to spend four days at his parents’ beautiful
beachfront home on Cape Cod, a wonderful spot where they’d
never been alone. During the summer the house overflowed
with Jack’s family, bubbling with activity from morning
until night. But to be up there for a weekend in April, just
the two of them, sounded like a perfect escape. Arriving at the Cape late at night, Regan and Jack are just
in time to experience the beginning of a major storm. The
next morning, Cape Cod Bay is quite a sight, churning with
whitecaps. The wind is howling ferociously. Sheets of rain
are pelting the house. Regan is looking forward to settling
in the den with Jack and watching the storm. However, the best laid plans . . . In the bedroom, Regan opens the curtains to find Skip, the
Reillys’ young caretaker, pressing his nose against the
glass, supposedly checking for leaks. A moment later, Jack
arrives home from the market, two gossipy older women who
live up the street in tow. A branch crashed through their
living room window, and they need a place to stay. When
Regan thought things couldn’t get any worse, Skip comes
running into the house, distraught that he’d just discovered
Adele Hopkins, the woman renting the house next door, in a
heap at the bottom of her staircase to the beach. Regan and
Jack run back down with him, but huge waves are crashing on
the shore. Hopkins is gone, presumably swept out to sea. Who was Adele Hopkins? No one knows. The sixty-ish loner,
who moved in five months ago, shunned her neighbors. Even
her landlords, friends of the Reillys, have no idea how to
locate her next of kin. Discovered in her dining room are
stacks of apology cards she’d not yet sent and bags of
decorative pillows that are embroidered with the saying
grudge me, grudge me not. Regan and Jack begin an investigation to help their friends
track down Hopkins’s family. They start by interviewing two
young women who own the shop where Adele had bought the
pillows. Pippy and Ellen opened Pillow Talk after they both
lost their jobs. When a newspaper article revealing the
terrible way the women had been treated by their former
employers was posted on the Internet, business took off,
they started to become well-known, and the Pillow Talk
website became a place for people who had had similar
experiences to vent their feelings. Pippy and Ellen just received an anonymous e-mail from
someone who spews venom about her former rowing coach—Adele
Hopkins. Could she be the same Adele Hopkins? Regan and Jack’s search for clues to this mysterious woman’s
identity makes for an anniversary weekend they’ll never forget!
