The Mainely Needlepointers are about to learn that no man is an
island--especially when greedy developers want his land . . .
Hermit Jesse Lockhart lives alone on King's Island, three miles east of
Haven Harbor, Maine, where he's created a private sanctuary for the
endangered Great Cormorants. But when a wealthy family wants to buy the
island and Jesse's cousin Simon petitions for power of attorney to force
him to sell, Jesse is the one who becomes endangered.
Mainely Needlepointer Dave Perry, who befriended Jesse in the VA
hospital, rallies the group to his defense. Angie Curtis and the
ravelers stitch "Save the King's Island Cormorants" pillows and sell
T-shirts to pay for Jesse's legal counsel. But tragically, on a visit to
the island, Angie finds Jesse dead. Now the search is on for a common
thread that can tie the murdered man to his killer . . .
