Produktbeschreibung

"I loved Zapped . . . Good writing with humour and a dab of irony . . . had me hooked right from the opening chapter." -Jenni Buhr, Goodreads review

"Verburg is a must for fans of the 'smart cozy'. . . a wonderful cast of characters I hope to meet again soon." -Sandra J. McGibbon, Amazon review 

A posh waterfront lawn party. To inventor Pam Nash, it's the perfect VIP launch for Zappa, her new "Taser for pacifists." To Pam's daughter Ashley, it's the perfect 21st-birthday bash-and a way to lose her text stalker. To Ashley's soon-to-be ex-husband, rock bagpiper Haggis Mack, it's one last shot. To soup-chef Lydia Vivaldi and her Wampanoag partner Mudge Miles, it's a catering job they can't refuse. To Cape Cod's famous artist-author Edgar Rowdey, who loathes parties, it will be short.

Sunshine, seafood, and champagne, military brass and venture capitalists-what could go wrong?

Lydia spots the grim answer floating face down beside the Nashes' dock. Did Ashley's stalker hit the wrong target? Is her childhood nanny lying about why she picked this day to come back to Compass Point? And what happened to the guest who sailed here from D.C. but never showed up at the Zappa demo? As rumors, dark secrets, and violence ripple through their village, it's time for Edgar Rowdey to switch reluctantly from spectator to sleuth.

She wrote her first prize-winning play at 16 and her second, a rock musical, in 1968. Alongside a career in publishing, she helped found the Provincetown Playwrights' Lab and headed theater companies in Provincetown, Bourne, and Cotuit.
