"First-rate plotting notwithstanding, it is Riggs' wonderful cast of characters that brings her
novel to life. In addition to the endearing yet never sentimentalized Victoria, the supporting figures are
uniformly compelling and thoroughly believable."Booklist

"Victoria's mordant wit and easy cleverness add to this vastly entertaining debut series. For all
collections."Library Journal

"Wonderful.Here's hoping that Victoria Trumbull is solving crimes for many years to come."
Booklist

Martha's Vineyard has been home to Victoria Trumbull for most of her ninety-two years. Its magic, history,
and picture-perfect calm are part of her very being. But one evening, Victoria hears something that doesn't
quite belong: a scream followed by a splash and a sound of a car speeding away. She investigates and
discovers a body on the outgoing tide.

Despite interruptions from her granddaughter Elizabeth, the harbormaster Domingo, a swarm of Island locals,
and a few mysterious visitors, Victoria manages to get in a good bit of detective work and still finds time to
cook her traditional Saturday night supper of Boston baked beans. She even concocts a scheme to trap the
killer. But she'll need to act quicklyvictim number two has already been found.

Cynthia Riggs is a thirteenth-generation Islander. She lives in West Tisbury, Massachusetts.

For nearly twenty-five years Davina Porter has been enthralling listeners with her narration. With her uncanny ability to mine the psychological depths of the characters, she brings them convincingly to life. She has been honored with an AudioFile "Golden Voice Award."
