BERRIED TO THE HILT

Natalie thinks that the scariest thing that she has to face is being the judge of the annual Cranberry Bake-Off contest for Cranberry Island. That soon changes when Adam and another fisherman find evidence of a sunken ship. Could it be a pirate ship that was captained by Davey Blue? Archeologists from the university are eager to find out but so is a private investigative team who search for treasures and sell them. When the owner of the private company is found dead, Natalie's friend, Eli, is charged with the crime. After all, he was overhead by everyone threatening the company for trying to loot the ship. Natalie is sure he is innocent but it won't be easy to prove it.

This is the fourth in the Whale Inn series by Karen McInerney. It is always fun to hear what it is like to live on a small island and to be an innkeeper. I enjoyed this book but the end did have a TSTL moment when Natalie went off on her own to try to stop the killer. Still, it was an enjoyable read and it is fun to have Natalie and John engaged. I'll be looking forward to the next installment.

Rating - B+
