The busy summer tourist season is winding down in Busman's Harbor,
Maine, but Julia Snowden senses trouble simmering for the Snowden Family
Clambake Company. Shifty David Thwing--the "Mussel King" of upscale
seafood restaurants--is sniffing around town for a new location. But
serving iffy clams turns out to be the least of his troubles....
When Thwing is found sleeping with the fishes beneath a local
lobsterman's boat, the police quickly finger Julia's brother-in-law,
Sonny, as the one who cooked up the crime. Sure, everyone knows Sonny
despised the Mussel King...but Julia believes he's innocent. Proving it
won't be easy, though. It seems there's a lot more than murder on the
menu, and Julia needs to act fast....
Includes traditional Maine clambake recipes!
