Easter meets murder in the latest book in New York Times
bestselling author Leslie Meier's ever-popular Lucy Stone mystery
series set in Tinker's Cove, Maine!
Part-time reporter Lucy Stone isn't about to put all her eggs in one
basket during a frantic Easter in Tinker's Cove--especially when it
comes to cracking a deadly mystery.
Known for its cheerful staff and elaborate annual Easter Bonnet Contest,
the Heritage House senior center regularly attracts new residents and
positive press. But once the town's retired librarian, Miss Julia
Tilley, checks in to recover from an illness, Lucy sees a side of the
facility that isn't quite so perfect and pristine. And the place may
soon be making headlines for different reasons following an unexplained
disappearance...
Lucy can't fathom how Agnes Neal could go missing from assisted living
over a silly Easter bonnet contest, or why few seem concerned as signs
point to foul play. A retired journalist with an independent mind, Agnes
had an eye for details and little interest in conforming to catty
cliques or rules set by her caretakers--traits that threatened some and
angered others.
While police stall the investigation without answers, Lucy realizes
backstabbing has no age limit when alarming parallels bloom between her
daughter's college frenemies and social circles at Heritage House.
Gathering clues as flimsy as a half-eaten milk chocolate bunny, Lucy
must hop to it and discover what happened to Agnes--before her own story
becomes another springtime tragedy left unsolved.
