Sabrina Dunsweeney, who has a tendency toward hypochondria and very bad cooking, moves to tiny, isolated Comico Island to recover from a cancer scare and the sudden loss of her mother. There she meets a man who tells her about Walk-the-Plank Wrightly, a pirate who died 200 years ago and who has recently made a cameo reappearance in Sabrina's rose garden. Attending a campaign fund-raising tea party at the prestigious Tittletott House, Sabrina finds the stoic islanders clutching monstrous neon teapots as they stampede toward the lone bathroom, spurred on by an unexpected ingredient in the chocolate scones. Then Sabrina finds the ghost—now truly dead in her rose garden and is drawn into a maze of deadly island intrigue.

Wendy Howell Mills lives on a tropical island off the southwest coast of Florida. Island Intrigue is her third book and first in a new series. www.wendyhowellmills.com

      Ohio teacher Sabrina Dunsweeney was expecting a month of rest and relaxation on Comico Island in this entertaining first of a new series from Mills (Death of a Mermaid
      ), but instead finds herself caught between two feuding families, the Tittletots, who own most of the isolated, vaguely Southern island, and the Wrightlys. Years earlier, Rolo Wrightly was accused of stealing a neighbor's silver and then setting her house afire. Rolo disappeared in the middle of the night and, with the exception of occasional letters to his mother, was never heard from again. Now, Rolo reappears on the island—and shortly after striking up an acquaintance with Sabrina, he's murdered. Unimpressed by the island's police force, Sabrina elects to do a little sleuthing herself. After unmasking the killer (quite literally on Halloween), Sabrina decides to stay on at Comico, a choice that, while unsurprising, will leave readers eagerly anticipating another Comico adventure.
