The Pennysaver's new hire, Rob Callahan, is young, ambitious, and positioning himself to become their next star.

Condition: Good. Not many people in Tinker's Cove, Maine, knew Old Dan Malone. The grizzled barkeep's social circle was limited to the rough-hewn lobstermen and other assorted toughs that frequented his bar.

While Lucy can't be sure, one thing is abundantly clear--the stage is set for a murder mystery with a killer ending Warm and homespun characters, plenty of seaside ambience and a fast-moving plot make this perfect winter cozy. --Publishers Weekly.…
