Deadly Nightshade
Synopsis
[From the back cover:]
"Victoria Trumbull has lived most of her ninety- two years on Martha's Vineyard. Its magic and its history are part of the texture of her life. She knows all the sounds of the sea. And, standing on a dock at night, she knows that what she hears is not one of them. Investigating, she discovers what turns out to be a murder. With the help of her granddaughter, the harbormaster, and some other eccentric New Englanders, Victoria manages to get in a good bit of detective work. After another homicide, she concocts a scheme to reveal the killer..."
This is the first in the Martha's Vineyard Mystery series. The author has lived in this beautiful location, a favorite spot where several presidents have gone to relax and recharge. She describes the scenery and characters so thoroughly that readers begin to feel at home on land and at sea as her unusual amateur sleuths delve into intricately plotted mysteries which thoroughly examine relevant moral issues. To continue reading this very cozy yet challenging series look for #2. The Cranefly Orchid Mystery and #3. The Cemetery Yew.
