Setting: Contemporary Eastport, Maine
Jacobia Tiptree, known to everyone as Jake, planned on spending the Fourth of July weekend in Eastport painting the porch and fixing up the front of her 1823 three story Federal style home, leaving some time to enjoy the holiday festivities. But a person from her past changed her plans. When Jake saw the bicyclist go by her house the first time, she didn’t give him a thought. But when he continued to go back and forth all morning, she was irritated. When he stopped and approached her, she asked him to leave. He didn’t leave until he said “I know you and I know what you did. Murder will out.” He did look familiar, but she couldn’t place him. Then her troubles began, threatening her life, and she was not sure she would survive to see the fireworks on the Fourth.
A quick read, perfect for a weekend.
