About the Book

"Alberg and Cassandra are at long last getting married--in fact, they're hitched by the end of the book--and Alberg has a new sergeant, a beautiful and enigmatic woman who seems destined, clearly, for her own series of adventures. But don't be fooled by all the sunshine: Sechelt harbors more dead bodies than any small town outside of Cabot Cove, and the serial killer who's busy knocking off the residents--and their children!"--

Book Synopsis

The ninth and final book in the Alberg & Cassandra series makes a wonderfully elegant end to the saga of the tiny town on Canada's Sunshine Coast, the policeman who tries to catch the town's baddies, and the sensual, smart-mouthed librarian he loves.

Alberg and Cassandra are at long last getting married--in fact, they're hitched by the end of the book--and Alberg has a new sergeant, a beautiful and enigmatic woman who seems destined, clearly, for her own series of adventures. But don't be fooled by all the sunshine: Sechelt harbors more dead bodies than any small town outside of Cabot Cove, and the serial killer who's busy knocking off the residents--and their children!--is one of the darkest characters in the Alberg canon. It's always hard to say goodbye, but this series ends on a brilliant and supremely satisfying note.
