reviewed on + 24 more book reviews


Rocking the Lobster Boat: Cabot cove, Maine, is a quiet little community == perhaps too quiet. Although the town rofits from the lobster trade, tourists avoid the Main Street shopping district. The First Annual Cabot Cove Lobster Festival promises to change all that, with a three-day celebration featuring a crafts fair, a beauty pagent, and a feast provided by the town's lobstermen. Mystery author Jessica Fletcher will also contribute to the affair by penning a feature article about the lobstermen for the local newspaper.

Jessica finds that the lobstermen are a tight-lipped group when it comes to their business. Their arrangement with the town to provide enough lobsters for the festival has caused dissenion in their ranks. And when Jessica discovers one of them murdered, she must outwit a killer before she becomes the next catch of the day...
