“Fans of Jessica Fletcher will devour this.” Rendezvous
Description
When the historic Hopkins ferry was raised from the bottom of the lake, who would have thought they were literally raising the dead? But there it was—a skeleton—right before their eyes. Unfortunately, the evidence is slim and soggy: the boat sank in 1949, the victim on board was a woman, and near the body is a piece of unidentifiable lacelike fabric. Sounds like a job for Betsy Devonshire. Betsy knows there's more to this story than what's on the surface. And once she and patrons of her needlecraft shop start lending a hand, they are sure to stitch together the details of this unnerving mystery.
