Nurse Aggie Burnside is looking forward to a quiet vacation at a beach house in Morgan's Cove, Maine. But neighbors quarrel, old feuds erupt and someone dies. Can this amateur sleuth sift through the strands of deception to solve the crime?
Massachusetts 1932. Aggie takes a vacation with her fiancé, Doctor John Taylor, at a family beach house on the Maine coast. Tempers flare when a mutual agreement with the neighbors falls apart and one family decides to build rental cottages. Adding to the conflict, the tenants are objectionable, and their eviction begins a series of fatal events.
A seemingly innocent newcomer is blamed for deception and a past abduction while his accuser is faced with allegations of fraud and theft. The residents are conflicted over who to believe and then two accidents put everyone on their guard.
Were they accidents? And how could they have been perpetrated when those with most to gain had iron clad alibis? Feuding neighbors, greedy relatives, over-protective parents, and thwarted lovers make for a dangerous mix and a rousing finale with a deadly pursuit on the beach.
Can Aggie solve the case before someone else is killed?
