Vineyard Deceit

In this addition to the Martha’s Vineyard Mystery Series, an ill tide carries desperate men with murder on their minds to the idyllic island, suddenly threatening everything former Boston copy J.W. loves dearly.

A Middle Eastern potentate and his entourage are descending on Martha’s Vineyard—and chaos is in the salt air.

Ex-Boston-cop Jeff “J.W.” Jackson would rather be fishing with his lady Zee, but the island’s overtaxed police force needs his help to control the madness their visitor’s arrival has stirred up—especially since the great man will not leave before ceremoniously reclaiming an emerald necklace stolen from his nation a century ago.

But when both the jewels and Zee vanish, J.W. is quickly transformed from rent-a-cop to private investigator as he races to rescue the one person he truly cares for.
