About the book
Christmas has arrived in Tinker's Cove, Maine, and Lucy Stone is thrilled about her upcoming role in the town’s production of A Christmas Carol. However, the festive spirit is not shared by everyone. Due to tough times in Tinker’s Cove this year, many residents are struggling financially and are unable to partake in the Christmas celebrations.
Despite the hardships faced by the town, Downeast Mortgage seems to be thriving. The owners, Jake Marlowe and Ben Scribner, are making a fortune off the misfortunes of others. With half the town in debt to them, the death of the miserly Marlowe leaves very few mourners and many possible suspects...
