From Molly MacRae, acclaimed author of the Highland Bookshop Mysteries, the first in a charming new series set on a beautiful barrier island off the coast of North Carolina and featuring a widowed folklorist, a seashell shop, and the ghost of an 18th century pirate As a professional storyteller, Maureen Nash can t help but see the narrative cues woven through her life. Like the series of letters addressed to her late husband from a stranger the proprietor of The Moon Shell, a shop on Ocracoke Island, off the coast of North Carolina. The store is famous with shell collectors, but it s the cryptic letters from Allen Withrow, the shop s owner, that convince Maureen to travel to the small coastal town in the middle of hurricane season. At the very least, she expects she ll get a good story out of the experience, never anticipating it could end up a murder mystery . . . In Maureen s first hours on the storm-lashed island, she averts several life-threatening accidents, stumbles over the body of a controversial Ocracoke local, and meets the ghost of an eighteenth-century Welsh pirate, Emrys Lloyd. To the untrained eye, all these unusual occurrences would seem to be random misfortunes, but Maureen senses there may be something connecting these stories. With Emrys s supernatural assistance, and the support of a few new friends, Maureen sets out unravel the truth, find a killer, and hopefully give this tale a satisfying ending . . . while also rewriting her own.
