When a late-spring snowfall buries the little seaside village of Provincetown out on the very tip of Cape Cod and the town curmudgeon is found dead at the foot of the world-famous Pilgrim Monument, the police are sure he committed suicide. But British newcomer, innkeeper and avid reader of cozies Liz Ogilvie-Smyth thinks otherwise. What she saw was incongruous and thus suspect but will she be able to convince the police chief to re-open the case as a murder investigation? This newly minted, self-created amateur sleuth along with her wise-cracking British-born but wanna be savvy American best friend Daphne Crowninshield and handsome Irish Provincetown cop James Finneran find themselves not only out to solve one mystery but three and one of them is a long-cold case. A fortune teller with an agenda, stray human bones, old grudges and a most surprising ending will keep you unable to put it down. If you like a wild ride full of red herrings and speaking of food, lots of good kitchen talk, a great locale and a host of quirky and lovable and not so lovable characters then this cozy if for you. More fun that a barrel of quahogs!

Cynthia Gallant-Simpson divides her year between Cape Cod, Nantucket and Puerto Rico, living with her husband on a boat. They down-sized from an antique sea captain's house on Cape Cod to a 44' boat and never looked back. She is now free to concentrate on her painting and writing. Long a mainstay in the Nantucket and Osterville art scenes with her Maritime Americana Primitive paintings she is now designing her book covers and writes every day. During a period of time that she lived in England she became "addicted" to British mysteries. Cozies just came naturally, blending in with her painting and satisfying her need to "paint" with words to make her books more than just for reading. She hopes that her readers can easily visualize her stories through her use of descriptive words.
