Being a suspect in a murder wasn’t the ideal way to be introduced to a new town and community, but for the most part they now seem to be accepting of him. We are back in the small town of Pine Cove and life is getting back to normal for Ellery Page. This series is quickly becoming a favourite Let the sleuthing begin! Matt Haynes always does a wonderful job with all the voices and really acts out the story and not just read it with a voice that brings the characters to life with inflections entirely suited the situations and characters. Guess who becomes the prime suspect by the police and the goat of the local press. An old acquaintance (a real creep) comes to town to write about an old murder at a local cursed old house but winds up murdered himself. Ellery inherited the bookshop and rundown Dutch Colonial from an ancient of his father and has only been a resident for four months.
It's set in an island off New Jersey (USA) that's accessible by ferry (that's why they can have cars).
It also has a police detective, a bookshop owner (and former professional TV actor) named Ellery (like Ellery Queen mystery writer!), a frenetic puppy named Watson (is there any other kind?), the Scallywags, and the Silver Sleuths. M/M cozy mystery, murder, murder-investigation, law-enforcement, friendship, bookseller, small-business, small-town, island-life, amateur-sleuth, verbal-humor, situational-humor***** The story truly follows all the cozy criteria and has a great plot, fascinating characters, and laughs. ***This story contains no on-screen sex or violence*** Because after his former flame disappears following their loud and public argument, Ellery seems to be Police Chief Carson's first - and only - suspect. What is Brandon really up to?Įllery will have to unscramble that particular puzzle post haste. But then, maybe Brandon isn't all that interested in getting back together either, because he seems a lot more interested in asking questions about the bloodstained past of his new home than discussing a possible future with Ellery.
Their relationship ended badly, and the last thing Ellery wants is a chance to patch things up - especially when his relationship with Police Chief Jack Carson is just getting interesting. Unlike everyone else in Pirate's Cove, Ellery Page, aspiring screenwriter, reigning Scrabble champion, and occasionally clueless owner of the village's only mystery bookstore, is anything but thrilled when famed horror author Brandon Abbott announces he's purchased legendary Skull House and plans to live there permanently.Įllery and Brandon have history. Ellery Page is back - and in hot water again!
