“All thumbs up for Murder Most Maine, another in the engaging series of Cranberry Island mysteries…I'm ready to book a room at the Gray Whale Inn!” — Susan Wittig Albert, bestselling author of Nightshade and other China Bayles Herbal Mysteries It's springtime on Cranberry Island — and love is in the air. It seems like every woman has the hots for buff trainer Dirk De Leon. He and his equally-gorgeous business partner, Vanessa Black, are leading a weight-loss retreat at the Gray Whale Inn — forcing innkeeper Natalie Barnes to lighten up her butter-laden breakfast menu. The mood on the island darkens when two grisly discoveries are made. The first is a skeleton walled up at the island's lighthouse. The second is a corpse of the fresh variety — the handsome Dirk! Could the spirit that once embodied the skeletal remains — perhaps the lighthouse keeper who disappeared a century ago — be responsible for Dirk's death? buy it from Amazon
Dead and Berried "Deliciously clever plot. Juicy characters. Karen MacInerney has cooked up a winning recipe for murder. Don't miss this mystery!" —Maggie Sefton Cool autumn winds may be sweeping across Cranberry Island, but for innkeeper Natalie Barnes, things are just heating up. On her way to pick cranberries one crisp morning, Natalie makes a grisly discovery: her part-time helper Polly Sarkes, dead of a gunshot wound to the chest. But murder isn't Natalie's only problem. Late at night, ghostly footsteps have been creaking across the attic floor of the inn, leading Natalie to discover that the inn has an unsolved mystery of its own. And when ex-fiance Benjamin Portlock sweeps into town with a gallon Natalie's favorite ice cream — and an engagement ring — relations with her handsome neighbor John turn as chilly as a Maine October night. read an excerpt
“…just what’s needed for a cozy evening in front of the fire…” —Cynthia Riggs Thirty-eight-year-old Natalie Barnes has quit her job, sold her house, and gambled everything on the Gray Whale Inn on Cranberry Island, Maine. But she’s barely fired up the stove when portly developer Bernard Katz rolls into town with a plan to replace the endangered terns next door with a golf resort — and replace the Gray Whale Inn with a parking lot. When the town board approves Katz's development, it looks like things couldn't get worse for Natalie. Then she discovers his body at the base of a cliff — and the police finger her as the killer. read an excerpt |
