Bunker 01 - Slipknot

The exciting debut of a snappy, spirited, and
irresistible mystery series from beloved and bestselling author Linda
Greenlaw In her bestselling nonfiction book All Fishermen
Are Liars, Linda Greenlaw confessed a desire to write fiction -- and readers
responded with an enthusiastic "Please do!" At last, she satisfies their hunger
with this sharp-witted, compulsively readable mystery, the first in a series
featuring marine investigator Jane Bunker. When Jane moves back to the
sleepy Maine fishing community where she was born, it's to escape the seamy
crime scenes and unsavory characters that crossed her path in Miami. Surely
whatever crimes are committed in touristy, idyllic Green Haven won't involve
anything as nasty as what she saw in Florida. It's a bit of a shock, then, when
Nick Dow, the town drunk, turns up dead, and it's not the simple accident that
everyone assumes it to be. Jane soon discovers that Dow wasn't even a drunk --
it was all an act. But why? And what does it have to do with a heated town hall
meeting about fishing rights and paternity suits? The more Jane digs, the more
confused she gets. Only two things are certain: Nothing is what it seems; and
the whole town is in each other's business. But it's not until Jane impulsively
hops on a boat with the killer -- a boat that suddenly heads out to sea -- that
things become downright dangerous . . . As she proved in The Hungry
Ocean, no one knows the sea like Linda Greenlaw. And as she proved in The
Lobster Chronicles, no one has a better way with the telling details of
Maine village life. This new mystery series features everything readers want: a
great setting, wonderful characters, an authentic and original detective -- and
a story that will keep them on the edge of their seats.
