Escaping the pressures of big-city policing, Maxine Benson is happy to be appointed police chief in the resort town of Port Ainslie.
Max’s biggest challenge is to overcome skepticism at her ability to deal with major crimes—like the murder of Billy Ray Edwards. Few people mourn Billy Ray’s passing. He was a bully and was also intent on derailing the biggest development project in the town’s history. But murder’s murder, and Max is ready to solve it on her own and prove her worth to the townspeople. And maybe even to herself.
This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for older teen readers and adults who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don’t like to read!
