Jacobia Tiptree saved her sanity—and her son, Sam—the day
she abandoned Wall Street for the seacoast village of
Eastport, Maine. In her new home, a charmingly dilapidated
fixer-upper, she looks forward to repairing old radiators
and restoring antique shutter for years to come. But Jake's
hopes of serenity are dashed when tiny Eastport erupts in a
crime wave.
Hometown bad boy Kenny Mumford—old flame of Jake's best
fiend and fellow sleuth, Ellie White—is the first victim.
When his corpse washes up on the beach at Prince's Cove, all
evidence points to a drowning...except the bullet hole in
his forehead.
When bodies begin littering the Maine scenery, Jake and
Ellie learn that the ante on Kenny's small-town antics has
been upped. Add a pair of unwelcome arrivals—Jake's
ex-husband, and an unscrupulous New York ex-money mogul—and
you've got a blueprint for more deadly danger than one house
can hold.
