Finally settled into her adopted island home, Annie is looking forward to writing her next mystery, making soap for her new business, and starting renovations on the Inn she plans to open by the summer. She's also enjoying spending more time with local police sergeant John Lyons, the man she's only just gotten comfortable calling her boyfriend. She's even starting to relish her relationship with John's teenaged daughter, Lucy. It's probably not the best moment for a visit from the biological mother Annie only recently met. Still, it's high time she got to know the mysterious Donna MacNeish . . .
But Donna's visit isn't merely a social call—she's come to share some devastating news. Seeking solace in an outing with Lucy, Annie and the teen stumble upon skeletal remains on the Inn's property, a finding that calls a halt to all construction while the police investigate. Desperate for answers, Annie starts asking questions of her own. But when secrets about her own past bring shattering revelations, suddenly everything Annie understands about love and loyalty is tested—and she wonders if the ties that bind her to her beloved community will reach a breaking point . . .

Best-selling novelist, soap maker, and Martha's Vineyard transplant Annie Sutton is back for third outing in the latest Vineyard novel (after A Vineyard Summer, 2019). This time, Annie's plans for the Vineyard Inn are in jeopardy when she discovers a human skull just down the beach, halting construction. Are the remains those of a man who went missing at sea two decades ago? Or perhaps one of the Wapanoag, the original residents of Martha's Vineyard? Every option presents potential obstacles for the future of this venture that Annie and her newly discovered brother, Kevin, have sunk all their resources into. Fans of the series will enjoy catching up with the lovingly rendered cast of characters populating Stone's Martha's Vineyard, and newcomers will find it easy to get to know everyone, with previous plot points woven skillfully into the narrative. Particularly of interest may be the developing relationships between Annie and her birth mother and Annie and her boyfriend's headstrong daughter, Lucy. A perfect escape for the reader looking to ease the strain of daily life.COPYRIGHT(2021) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
