A murder investigation brings old complications back to Logan Island

After losing her magazine job, Harriet Baker returns to Logan Island, the New Jersey beach town she had hoped to leave behind. A body found after her birthday party gives her a chance to reclaim her career: she agrees to investigate the killing for an article. The trouble is that Sara, the sister of Harriet’s former fling Nic, is the chief suspect, so Harriet and Nic must work together. The setup ties the murder mystery to Harriet’s professional ambitions and the unresolved history between the two investigators, while the inquiry exposes less polished sides of their seemingly idyllic hometown.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy mysteries with women sleuths and a small-town setting.

Book overview

Murder has a way of bringing people together...

Harriet Baker thought that when she left Logan Island, she was leaving for good. But after getting fired from her dream magazine job, she finds herself stuck back in the sleepy New Jersey beach town living with her eccentric mother and desperate to escape.

And her ticket out might be...murder?

When Harriet's extravagant birthday party ends with a dead body, all fingers point to Sara Allbright, the troublesome sister of none other than Nic, Harriet's short-lived fling from years ago that she's been eager to forget. And the feeling is entirely mutual. But murder makes for a good story, and when Harriet is told that she can get her old job back if she writes an article uncovering what really happened the night of her party, she readily agrees. To write her piece, Harriet will need Nic's full cooperation, and if Nic wants to clear his sister's name, he'll need Harriet's investigative skills. But working together? That's less than ideal.

As the two team up to find the real killer, they'll uncover the dark underbelly of their seemingly perfect hometown, uncover long buried feelings, and maybe, just maybe, realize that they might work well together after all.
