Publisher's Summary

First in an adorable new cozy series!

Ellery Page, aspiring screenwriter, Scrabble champion, and guy with worst luck in the world when it comes to dating, is ready to make a change. So, when he learns he's inherited both a failing bookstore and a falling-down mansion in the quaint seaside village of Pirate's Cove on Buck Island, Rhode Island, it's full steam ahead!

Sure enough, the village is charming, its residents amusingly eccentric, and widowed police chief Jack Carson is decidedly yummy (though, probably, as straight as he is stern). 

However, the bookstore is failing, the mansion is falling down, and there's that little drawback of finding rival bookseller and head of the unwelcoming committee Trevor Maples dead during the annual Buccaneer Days celebration.

Still, it could be worse. And once police chief Carson learns Trevor was killed with the cutlass hanging over the door of Ellery's bookstore, it is.

Note: This story contains no sex or violence.

EXCELLENT

I have always enjoyed Josh Lanyon’s books and I certainly like this new series. The main character Ellery is a quiet and modest man . A person of good character and who tries to start a new life in a small town. He was suspected of a murder and he had to try to solve the crime. Well performed by Matt Haynes. The story flows smoothly throughout and it was until almost the end before the real killer was revealed. Josh Lanyon did it again and I hope there will be more books to come for this series.
