A police procedural set on Nantucket, this book is a must read for mystery buffs. Character driven, the ending‘s revelations shocked me. Triggers: child sexual & physical abuse. #readyourkindle #September

After work journaling & reading. Beautiful afternoon: soft breeze, 73 degrees, bird song, leaves at the tip of turning. Feeling relaxed & content. #75Soft #porchlife #MondayMood #MoodMonday

I was surprised by the negative Kirkus review. I enjoyed this story of four generations of women haunted by losses. Each generation has a gift related to memory and this gift leads them on sometimes foolhardy paths as they seek to find answers about a sailor that faced an angry whale. 🐋 This unusual novel earned a 3.5/5 ⭐️ rating for reminding me that the relationship between mothers and daughters can be complicated.

I have a finish! I'm just not sure what I think of it. For more than half the book we get a LOT of the main detective character exercising, deciding what to eat, describing Nantucket in way too much detail, thinking about his history- with plenty of info about his parents, wife, and sons- and, occasionally, thinking about the case he's been sent to oversee. The bones of a young child have been discovered at a construction site, which they've been

The first in a new series, I can‘t wait for the second. This novel went to a place I could not foresee. Talk about being blindsided. Detective Tommy Kelly is sent to Nantucket Island to oversee the discovery of a child‘s body. The case is more than cold and there seems to be no chance of solving it when he and the local detective Jo Harris get a series of lucky breaks. This novel will flip you on your head. A great series beginner. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

In a first for me1 I watched the show before reading the book. The book (of course) is so much better. The ending is different. Perfect summer page turner .

The little Greek chorus at the beginning of each chapter helped to keep me in time. And I liked that there wasn't a spotlight on every weekend. I enjoyed getting little vignettes from the various characters, dipping in & out of their lives and seeing how they had grown & changed (particularly Ursula & Leland!) But I hate this was framed around an affair and I hate Jake for carrying on an affair for YEARS, even before he was married.
