About this listen

 In Deadly Night Shade, Cynthia Riggs introduced Victoria Trumbull, one of the most energetic amateur sleuths on record, notwithstanding her 92 years, or possibly because of them. Now, Cynthia Riggs gives us the story of her first case and how she came to be a police deputy.

A little island town is the scene of a conflict between two men of God: the outgoing minister of the local church and his successor, each known as Jack. But Victoria is concerned with a series of unexpected deaths, which turn out to be the result of anonymous food packages left on people's doorsteps. Victoria's get-up-and-go attitude, her courage, and her exhaustive knowledge of Martha's Vineyard and its people once again help her to discover the truth behind the mystery.

Critic reviews

"Absorbing....A sensitive observer of the scene, Riggs writes with warmth and humor about all-too-human characters with whom readers can readily identify." (Publishers Weekly)
