Description

Jake is deep in her latest home improvement project—repainting the enormous porch on her 1823 Federal-style house—in this 14th mystery in the series (after Crawl Space), when she notices a man repeatedly biking past her house. His face is unsettlingly familiar, but his chilling message seems inexplicable: "Blood shows up again. Murder will out." Back in her days as a hotshot financial manager she did business with plenty of shady characters, but she's still baffled as to the identity of her nemesis—until she receives a photo of a murdered man. Now Jake knows what—and whom—she's up against. But knowing her enemy is no guarantee that she can escape the grim payoff he has in store for her. When Jacobia "Jake" Tiptree left behind a high-stakes financial career for the charming town of Eastport, Maine, she expected a quiet life spent fixing up her stately antique house. But there are skeletons in those old closets, and in those of her neighbors, and Jake finds that the perils of the stock market pale in comparison to the murder, mayhem, and mystery of remodeling. Sarah Graves's cozy series features eccentric characters, home remodeling tips, and the occasional haunting.
