New York Times-bestselling author: &“Charming…Warm and homespun characters, plenty of seaside ambience and a fast-moving plot.&”—Publishers Weekly Not many people in Tinker&’s Cove, Maine, knew Old Dan Malone. The grizzled barkeep&’s social circle was limited to the rough-hewn lobstermen and other assorted toughs that frequented his bar.

A local musician insists Old Dan conned a winning lottery ticket worth five grand from him. A handyman claims that Old Dan stiffed him for repair work he&’d done at the bar.

Dylan has come to direct the production of Finian&’s Rainbow, the featured event at Our Lady of Hope&’s St. Patrick&’s Day extravaganza. Was Old Dan killed by someone he&’d cheated or someone he&’d loved? Lucy can&’t be sure, but one thing is abundantly clear: The stage is set for a murder mystery with a killer ending… &“Leslie Meier writes with sparkle and warmth.&”—Chicago Sun Times
