About this ebook
A Canadian Mountie and an amateur sleuth race to solve a seaside mystery before a hurricane hits in this witty mystery from “a natural storyteller” (Ottawa Review of Books).
Hyacinth “Hy” McAllister trips over a body on the beach in her tiny Canadian fishing village one day—and tumbles head first into a murder case. Lance Lord, dressed up like Jimi Hendrix, has had his head split open with an axe. As Hurricane Angus storms up the coast, Hy and Mountie Jane Jamieson vie against the elements to uncover the killer in a village where almost everyone has something to hide . . .
“A lot of fun.” —The Star Phoenix
“MacLeod is clever with colorful characters, and when she goes for the frequent laughs, she usually hits the target.” —Toronto Star
“A terrific writer with a sly wit.” —Anne Emery, Arthur Ellis Award-winning author of the Collins-Burke Mysteries
