At home on Sanpere Island, Maine, caterer and amateur
sleuth Faith Fairchild discovers that real estate can be
murder, especially when it’s all in the family, in this
twenty-third book in the popular mystery series.
The Fourth of July is one of the hottest on record and
even the breeze off Penobscot Bay can’t seem to cool
things down for Faith Fairchild and the rest of the folks
on Sanpere Island. But the fireworks are just beginning.
After the celebrations are over, Faith discovers a body
in the woods near The Birches, an early twentieth-century
“cottage.”
The body is identified as The Birches’ housekeeper, who
seems to have succumbed to a heart attack. The death is
only one of the dramatic events upending the historic
house. A family gathering has been called to decide who
will inherit the much loved, and very valuable, estate
that has been in the Proctor family for generations. With
this much money involved, it’s just a matter of time
before trouble arises.
Faith is juggling her own family problems. Her teenage
son, Ben, has started a new job as a dishwasher at The
Laughing Gull Lodge—learning things that could land him
in very hot water. And her daughter Amy is worried about
her new friend, Daisy Proctor. Daisy is terrified—
convinced that someone is trying to eliminate her mother
from getting a share of The Birches. To protect her
children, Faith has to find a possible murderer—before he
strikes too close to her own home.
