A seaside cottage comes with a stunning view—and a warning.
Confined to nursing care after a bad fall, Agnes’s new landlady cautions that her secluded waterfront property is highly coveted by boating neighbors eager for its deep-water access.
Located in the private Black Swan community, the cottage sits on prime shoreline. Ambitious members of the homeowners’ association already float plans for a marina and clubhouse. What good, they argue, is such a view to a woman in her eighties who doesn’t even boat?
Before Agnes has settled into the rental home, another accident on the property alarms her. The death of a good man—good at making enemies, as some say—reveals tensions not only within the Black Swan community but beyond its boundaries. Though the police and coroner blame the man’s negligence, Agnes finds traces that challenge the official conclusion.
Unless she can discover who stands to gain by the man’s death, the scenic vista might become her grave view.
Genre: Mystery
