Sam Blackwood is a retired homicide detective with a finished manuscript, three ferns on her windowsill, and no intention of getting involved in anything.
Then a late-night call pulls her to a small Maine town where an old man has died of a “convenient” heart attack — and someone has been very carefully going through his things.
This is the story before the lighthouse. Before the ghost. Before Moonhaven changed everything.
A complete prequel novella to the Moonhaven Mysteries — best read before Book One, but written to stand completely alone.
