Description
Hardcover edition of Murder at Beacon Rock by Alyssa Maxwell, published in 2022. A reporter's life is turned upside down when she discovers a body in the waters off Newport, Rhode Island. Emma Cross, a lesser Vanderbilt, is attending an exclusive gathering of the New York Yacht Club at Beacon Rock mansion with her fiancé. However, it's not the social events that bring her to the scene, but the discovery of a woman's body bobbing against one of the boats moored at the base of the property. The police initially conclude the woman was a suicide, perhaps to avoid scandal for the owners of Beacon Rock. But Emma suspects murder and begins investigating on her own. As she sorts through the complex web of relationships between sportsmen, boat crews, and the Newport elite, she must unravel a tangled thread of clues to uncover the truth. With its intricate plot and historical setting, Murder at Beacon Rock is a gripping mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end.
