With most of its able-bodied male inhabitants away in the service, the island is now home only to aged fishermen, concerned women and children, and second-rate soldiers guarding a low-priority military emplacement and camp for Italian POWs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith her husband Archie, Fourth Cliff's beloved police captain, off fighting in the Marines, Mary Beth Swann steps into his role. Though a cop herself, she has to fight for the respect of Fourth Cliff's hardscrabble residents. And that's before a murdered POW surfaces in a fisherman's net, followed by more bodies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDetermined to find the killer, Swann must rely only on the help of a simple-minded deputy, a disgraced doctor, and a mob-connected mainlander to prove her worth to Fourth Cliff-and to herself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the tradition of Where the Crawdads Sing and the BBC's Foyle's War, Michael Oren's novel seizes the reader and doesn't let go until the very last page.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Michael Oren","offers":[{"title":"Dzanc Books |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2023-10-20","offer_id":44230053036287,"sku":"9781950539895","price":25.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_8814a3ff-05ae-4cea-a40e-e04bf93c161b.jpg?v=1692994388","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781950539895","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
