The Mainely Needlepointers are about to learn that no man is an islandโespecially when greedy developers want his land . . .
Hermit Jesse Lockhart lives alone on Kingโs Island, three miles east of Haven Harbor, Maine, where heโs created a private sanctuary for the endangered Great Cormorants. But when a wealthy family wants to buy the island and Jesseโs cousin Simon petitions for power of attorney to force him to sell, Jesse is the one who becomes endangered.
Mainely Needlepointer Dave Perry, who befriended Jesse in the VA hospital, rallies the group to his defense. Angie Curtis and the ravelers stitch โSave the Kingโs Island Cormorantsโ pillows and sell T-shirts to pay for Jesseโs legal counsel. But tragically, on a visit to the island, Angie finds Jesse dead. Now the search is on for a common thread that can tie the murdered man to his killer . . .
