Falling dreams and harbours
EXCERPT FROM HARBOR FALLS:
The Harbour Falls Mystery was the real reason I was here. I
had every intention of basing my next novel on the facts of the case. I was
tired of fiction; I wanted to write a true crime novel. Plus there was a little
part of me—the detective that lurks in all of us—that dreamed of solving this
case.
But nobody knew that this case held more than a professional
interest for me. Not because the main locale was Harbour Falls, and not because
the mystery involved the disappearance of a local I’d once known. And, truth be
told, had once envied. Nor was it the fact that this local, Chelsea Hannigan,
had gone missing the night before her wedding.
Scandalous, though it was.
What piqued my curiosity was the man Chelsea had been on the
verge of marrying—Adam Ward. He was the man at the center of the mystery. He
was the man whose life had been altered when Chelsea disappeared, after he was
named as the number one suspect.
What role, if any, had he played in her disappearance?
Though never formally charged, many believed he was far from innocent.
Well I was here to uncover the truth. There was just one
small problem.
Contrary to what I’d told Ami, I was interested in Adam
Ward. Still. Despite how ridiculous I knew it was, I couldn’t wait to run into
Adam. Would he even remember me?
Maybe not. But I wasn’t the shy girl I’d been back then.
Of course I was playing with fire. If he ever suspected I
was investigating him in order to research my new novel, he’d hardly be
pleased. I might even see firsthand just how supposedly dangerous he could be.
At the thought, a little shudder ran through me. Whether it
was due to fear, excitement, or both, I wasn’t sure. I knew I should analyze it
and get my head straight before I ended up in trouble.
But I’d run out of time. Because the fog began to lift, and
in the distance, Fade Island came into view.
ABOUT HARBOUR FALLS:
Best-selling author Maddy Fitch, while researching material for a new
novel, returns to her hometown of Harbour Falls to investigate an unsolved
disappearance that has haunted the tiny Maine coastal town for the past four
years. Although the case has gone cold, Maddy soon discovers that the prime
suspect, Adam Ward, is hotter than ever.
The sexy, secretive Mr. Ward now makes his home on an isolated island
near the coast, so Maddy takes up residence nearby to find out why this
enigmatic man lives in such a secluded place. Is it because the missing person
at the heart of the case, a young woman, was engaged to Adam at the time of her
disappearance? Did the prime suspect perhaps move to escape the town's
scrutiny, or is he hiding something much more sinister?
As Maddy plunges into the case, she and Adam are drawn together. Should
she fight her growing attraction to a possibly dangerous man? The mystery
deepens, and the list of suspects, people who all had reasons for wanting to
see the missing young woman gone, grows. Maddy hopes that by solving the
mystery Adam will be proven innocent of any involvement, and they can then move
forward with their relationship.
But as she uncovers clues that begin to lead suspicion away from Adam,
new secrets emerge that leave her questioning everything. Maddy continues to
close in on the truth, threatening to blow the lid off the whole mystery. But
what she doesn't realize is that she's actually caught up in someone's very
dangerous game.
Lies, secrets, deceptions. In Harbour Falls, nothing is ever what it
seems. This steamy novel immerses the reader in an intricate storyline that
will keep them glued till the very last page.
