After thirty-five years as the Chief of Police on Nantucket, Ed Kapenash's heart can no longer take the stress.

But his plans to retire are thwarted when, with only three days left on the job, he receives a phone call. The Richardsons' 22-million-dollar summer home has been burned to the ground. The couple are far from hurt - they were out on the water at one of their lavish yacht parties. But their dependable personal assistant has vanished.

To solve the case, the Chief will have to contend with small town gossip for one final act of service to the community he knows and loves.

A propulsive sun-soaked drama featuring some of Elin Hildebrand's most beloved characters - and of course, the beautiful and timeless island of Nantucket itself.
