Death on Nantucket (A Merry Folger Nantucket Mystery)

Death on Nantucket (A Merry Folger Nantucket Mystery)

â€‹Francine Mathews' no-nonsense Nantucket police detective, Merry Folger, is back on the case after nineteen years. â€‹Death on Nantucket, the fifth Merry Folger Mystery, is full of regional charm, a strong sense of local history, and foggy New England Island atmosphere.Â

Spencer Murphy is a national treasure. A famous Vietnam War correspondent who escaped captivity in Southeast Asia, he made a fortune off of his books and television appearances. But Spence is growing forgetful with age; heâ€™s started to wander and even fails to come home one night. When a body is discovered at Step Above, the sprawling Murphy house near Steps Beach, Nantucket police detective Meredith Folger is called in to investigate.

The timing couldnâ€™t be worse: Itâ€™s the Fourth of July, and tourists are arriving in droves to celebrate on Nantucketâ€™s beaches, so the police force is spread thin. On top of that Merry is planning her wedding to cranberry farmer Peter Mason, and her new boss, an ex-Chicago police chief with an aggressive management strategy, seems to be trying to force her to quit. Merry canâ€™t conclude the Murphy investigation quickly enough for him. As she grapples with a family of unreliable storytellersâ€”some incapable of recalling the past, and others determined that it never be knownâ€”she suspects that the truth may be forever out of reach, trapped in the failing brain of a man whose whole life may be a lie.
