ABOUT THE BOOK
Nothing happens at The Shores. Ceilidhs, yes. Killings, no. Until one night, murder comes to the isolated Prince Edward Island village. Amateur sleuth Hy McAllister trips over a body on the beach. It's cottager Lance Lord, dressed like Jimi Hendrix, his head split open by an axe. As Hurricane Angus moves up the coast, Mountie Jane Jamieson and Hy vie to figure out who killed who and why, but they're crippled by the hurricane, a power failure, and, finally, a dense fog. The Shores is sheltering a murderer. A murderer whose motive is possessive love, whose mind is the weapon, and who will kill again -- until Hy turns the weapon on the killer.
