Danger in Spades

About Danger in Spades

Heralding a WWII veteran’s birthday stirs up mysteries that may upend what Maggie Watson and her friends believe about the past. Maggie Watson and her friends in the Somerset Harbor historical society are throwing a 1940s-themed birthday bash for Dr. William King, one of the only remaining World War II veterans in town.

However, party planning takes a disheartening turn when a long-hidden letter indicates the society president’s aunt may have offered sanctuary to enemy spies at her farm. Could Somerset Harbor sweetheart Lillian Spade, heralded for her wartime patriotism, have been secretly harboring the enemy? Kindly old William King just might hold the key to Lillian's suspicious affairs--but the retired doctor is embattled by problems of his own, including an AWOL son.

As Maggie seeks intel on the man’s whereabouts, it becomes obvious that someone out there thinks the past should stay buried, and they're pulling rank to ensure that it does. All's fair in love, war, and solving mysteries, but this clear and present danger might be one that even Maggie should surrender to--lest she end up with fatal marching orders.
