Maggie Summer is making big changes in her life. The antique print dealer has taken a sabbatical and moved to Maine to run an antiques mall with Will Brewer, her significant other. And she will finally adopt the daughter she’s been longing for. However, the troubled girl doesn’t want any part of the plan, showing affection only for the harbor seals, which remind her of her “real mother.” But someone starts shooting the seals―and a young fisherman is murdered. Then Will confesses a secret from his past, and Maggie begins to wonder if this is the biggest mistake of her life.
About the author:
When I was single I was an adoption advocate and adopted four daughters. Now I’m married, live on the coast of Maine, and write mysteries and historical novels about people searching for love, acceptance, and a place to call home.
My husband, artist Bob Thomas, and I love sitting on our porch overlooking the river and sipping wine, when we’re not writing or painting, or keeping up with the rest of the world on CNN. On good days I walk along beautiful coastal roads near my home. I also love speaking about writing at schools, libraries, and other organizations, and attending art gallery openings, especially when my husband’s work is featured.
