The perfect getaway was what Rachel Hudson expected, not a real-life mystery that could become her next bestseller. Escaping California for Waterford Point, Maine, was supposed to be all rest and relaxation. But instead of breakfast in bed, Rachel experienced night terrors, and woke to the cries of the Weeping Willow….Nick Chavaree didn't like two things: chasing ghosts, and out-oftowners snooping around. Rachel didn't want to tangle with the sheriff, but found it hard to stay away. Despite Nick's picture-perfect scowl and reprimands, there was more going on beneath the surface, and it needed further investigation. And what she found was a courageous hero who would give her something better than a storybook ending.

Deputy Mason Ryland can’t ignore the fact that someone wants his new employee, beautiful Abbie, dead. As a lawman, he’ll keep her safe through the investigation. As a man, he’d offer his personal protection through the endless summer nights…

Chance is a fine thing, thought the nurse who had watched wealthy Muriel Probert die in her Fifth Avenue apartment, so she took that chance – along with other fine things – and ran.To Lennox Kemp, Muriel’s ex-husband, the string of gambling casinos in Las Vegas left to him in her will seemed a dubious inheritance, bound to bring out the worst in everyone concerned whether they be prevaricating lawyers or predatory gangsters.But the slow legal process is undercut when a body is found in the East River, and there will soon be another victim as the hunt for the missing nurse turns murderous. Kemp would prefer the nastiness kept on the far side of the Atlantic, but when the final showdown comes it is on his own home ground of Newtown, where the local police force gets a taste of gunplay, Nevada-style.
