Something Fishy

Red herrings are everywhere in this coastal-village mystery by an author praised for her “droll humor” (Montreal Gazette). Herrings are falling from the sky over The Shores—an unusual phenomenon anywhere, but especially so in this case. A newcomer, Anton Paradis, has set up a restaurant that specializes in dangerous dining, cooking up food that can kill to tantalize the palates of wealthy clients. It’s a recipe for trouble. Someone’s bound to get hurt. Someone does. But oddly, the victim dies laughing . . . Mountie Jane Jamieson suspects it’s no accident. But could there really be another murder in this tiny Canadian fishing village? All the while, a wind turbine slices its blades over the cape, menacing the villagers with its eerie presence. It seems like death is in the wind as well as on the dinner plate . . . Praise for Hilary MacLeod’s Mind Over Mussels: “MacLeod is clever with colorful characters, and when she goes for the frequent laughs, she usually hits the target.” —Toronto Star
