A cozy mystery - When Mila Davis loses her job as an investigative journalist in New York, she feels her life is over. Then she's stunned to learn the father she'd assumed deceased from her childhood, has just died and left her his rundown marina on the Chesapeake Bay in rural Virginia. She heads to Angler's Creek to investigate her inheritance and her father's history. The small town holds many secrets and Mila quickly becomes embroiled in more than her share. But she's determined to figure out why her mother kept her father's existence a secret and why the man representing a shadowy investment firm is desperate to buy the marina...until he turns up dead.
