Deadlights Cove - 1: Smoke Show

Więcej o książce

When the dean of Bishop College in Boston threatened to close Petra Ambrose’s Pre-Revolutionary American History department, she felt her dream career slipping away. Students showed little interest in American Puritanical culture unless it involved modern, trendy witches. In a last-ditch effort to save her job, Petra was tasked with finding something fresh to attract more students. Unsure where to begin, she ventured up the coast to explore less clichéd sites than touristy Salem. In small-town Maine, she imagined a picturesque village by the water. While she encountered quirky, nosy neighbors, Deadlights Cove was far too dingy, ruled by its no-nonsense mayor. Everyone seemed to share an inside joke at her expense, especially the charming yet infuriating bartender, Blaze, who managed to both irritate and excite her. As obstacles mounted, Petra considered abandoning her mission until she found herself embroiled in a murder investigation. Nothing in Deadlights Cove was as it appeared, and she might uncover more than she ever expected. But was it worth sacrificing everything she had worked for? Follow Petra and Blaze's journey, along with a cast of local misfits, through the Deadlights Cove series, beginning with the first installment, Smoke Show. Each book features a different couple, yet an overarching mystery connects them all.
