Tools of the Traitor

About Tools of the Traitor

If amateur sleuth Maggie Watson doesn't build her latest case soundly, she could be drawing up a blueprint for disaster. Carriage House Antiques owner Maggie Watson has partnered with preservationist James Bennett on a renovation job at a cottage enclave outside Somerset Harbor, Maine. The projects in progress come to a halt, however, when increasingly suspicious pranks put plans on hold.

The situation quickly goes from annoying to ominous when Maggie discovers a stain in one of the derelict cottages that looks a lot like blood. Did something nefarious happen at Juniper Lodge, or is Maggie overreacting? As tension surrounding Whispering Woods builds, Maggie finds herself caught up in disquieting family drama and neighborhood grudge matches.

But who is the architect of this chaos? Maggie has a sinking feeling that if she misses her window of opportunity for solving the crime, the perpetrator could become further unhinged. Can she hammer out the facts before the walls come tumbling down around her?
