About this ebook

Brown's boathouse had weathered many storms and had dealt with time, trespass, rot and ruin. So, what was a skeleton doing pinned in the mud under the rotting floorboards when the most photographed landmark was demolished? And, more to the point, who was the body?

Boddington Bay's super sleuths Amanda Augustine, and her friend, former policeman Larry Brownlow are suddenly drawn into a twenty-year-old cold case when the Boston police put in a call for help. The victim was 'the man you love to hate' in Boddington Bay, and there are more than a few suspects with good motives for murder.  But Angela and Larry discover that over time memories fade, suspects forget, alibis are re-shaped, and Father Time, and Mother Nature have become involved. By listening, looking, watching and asking a boatload of questions, Angela and Larry come up with a result after an unplanned midnight outing puts their lives on the line.

Angela also has a secret from her past that has to stay under wraps, or her idyllic life as the owner of the village bakery and high-end kitchen shop may go up in flames. Her cousin Lisa, foisted upon her in the terms of a will, knows just a bit too much, and likes to stir the pot. One day will she spill the beans?

This is a short read cozy mystery full of interesting village characters, a picture postcard seaside town, and an end that will raise some eyebrows. Throw in Fudge the rescue kitten who is always, yes always in trouble, and your coffee break or Sunday afternoon read is ready!

About the Author Lucinda D. Davis has been reading and loving mystery stories since she was old enough to haunt the narrow rows of books at the small Quebec, Canada village library where she spent her summers. After decades of penning ad copy, marketing, and writing for horse sport magazines, she decided to do what people had been telling her to do for years: write some books! She presently lives in a small hamlet on the beautiful Rideau Canal in Ontario, Canada. Her living room view looks out over the locks and waterways. This idyllic setting replete with friends, and more than a few interesting characters inspired her Boddington Bay series of short 'coffee break' cozy mysteries. Her longer Coppin's Lock series brings England to the Canadian countryside! The stories introduce readers to a trendy town in Ontario, Canada that could have been plucked from the English landscape, quirky characters included! Take the essential and quintessential British tea shop, pub and antique shop, throw in two female sleuths, add a Police Chief left shaking his head and you've got the ideal cozy mystery. While the girls may roam from home from time to time, their hearts are firmly set in Coppin's Locks!
