Secrets in the Water

A Meredith Island Mystery, Book 1

De: Alice Fitzpatrick

Narrado por: Deborah Kipp

Emma Galway’s suicide has haunted the Meredith Island for fifty years.

Back on the island to lay her grandmother to rest, Kate can’t avoid reflecting on the death of her aunt. Learning that her late mother had believed Emma was murdered and had conducted her own investigation, she decides to track down her aunt’s killer. With the help of her neighbour, impetuous and hedonistic sculptor Siobhan Fitzgerald, Kate picks up where her mother had left off. When the two women become the subject of threatening notes and violent incidents, it’s clear that one of their fellow islanders is warning them off. As they begin to look into Emma’s connection to the Sutherlands, a prominent Meredith Island family, another islander dies under suspicious circumstances, forcing Kate and Siobhan to confront the likelihood that Emma’s killer is still on the island.

“If you like a well wrought complex plot with lots of twists and turns; a lovely Welsh setting; attractive and believable characters; an interesting psychological depth, this is the book for you.”—Maureen Jennings, author of the Murdoch Mysteries and The Paradise Cafe Mysteries

Reseñas de la Crítica

“This debut mystery serves up memorable characters, a captivating setting and a story that the reader can care about. I can’t wait to revisit Meredith Island on the next outing for this excellent new series.”—Mary Jane Maffini, Award-winning author of the Camilla MacPhee and the Charlotte Adams mysteries.

“The only thing more enchanting than the setting of the Welsh Island of Meredith is the prosaic style of Alice Fitzpatrick. She writes with charm dashed with a healthy dose of dark undercurrents. Secrets In The Water has the cleverness of a traditional mystery wrapped in a warm blanket. It’s the perfect book to read in front of a fireplace on a cold night.”—Erik D’Souza, author of the Suzanne Rickson Mystery Series and Social Media Director & Webinar Coordinator for Crime Writers Canada
