Pepper Sullivan just solved the first murder that quiet Misty-on-the-Sound has seen in decades with the help of her trusty canine companion, Mr. Woogles.

But when the town’s richest and most famous son, Everett Pursley the Third, comes back to lead the “Lights on the Sound” parade of boats on Labor Day weekend, tragedy strikes again. The millionaire’s wife is found drowned. Was it an accident? As usual, Pepper’s one-time boyfriend Sheriff Logan Bateman needs her help to figure out what happened--but he doesn’t want it. When her gorgeous next-door neighbor, Dr. Angelo D’Amore, provides an unexpected clue, Logan seems a mite jealous. And Pepper can’t get far enough away from the pesky new guy in town, Josh Devlin. Nevertheless, the attributes of all three potential “suitors” are gleefully dissected by Pepper’s nosy and noisy mother. In the end, Pepper must harness all her skills as a sleuth to uncover the culprit and unravel the mystery of the lady who was launched. |
