Sea Child, A Cape Breton Mystery #2 by Renny DeGoots

 DeGoots revives her beloved detective, Gordie MacLean, in another murder mystery on the iconic Cape Breton Island.

With few clues, they must piece together this who-done-it with good police work and sharp wits.

The characters in this series quickly feel like old friends and we root for our hero as he faces danger, heartbreak, and the scorn of his boss. But like all great sleuths, he keeps pushing until the truth comes to light.
