A charming seaside mystery with heart, humour and a determined female sleuth. Ordinarily, there’s not too much crime to speak of in Port Erin, a sleepy seaside village on the Isle of Man.

Quinn is fairly confident that her former Isle of Man Constabulary colleagues will wrap this case up in no time.
