Fiction. Mystery. HTML:

It's springtime on Cranberry Island — and love is in the air. It seems like every woman has the hots for buff trainer Dirk De Leon. He and his equally-gorgeous business partner, Vanessa Black, are leading a weight-loss retreat at the Gray Whale Inn — forcing innkeeper Natalie Barnes to lighten up her butter-laden breakfast menu.

The mood on the island darkens when two grisly discoveries are made. The first is a skeleton walled up at the island's lighthouse. The second is a corpse of the fresh variety — the handsome Dirk! Could the spirit that once embodied the skeletal remains — perhaps the lighthouse keeper who disappeared a century ago — be responsible for Dirk's death?

The police pin the blame on Natalie's boyfriend who — to her dismay — had a long-ago fling with Vanessa. To find the true killer and ease her own aching heart, Natalie must untangle the knot of jealous girlfriends and spurned admirers that once surrounded the hunky trainer.

Praise:

"MacInerney adds a dash of the supernatural, throws in some touristy tidbits and finishes with some tasty diet-right recipes."—Publishers Weekly

“All thumbs up for Murder Most Maine, another in the engaging series of Cranberry Island mysteries. Karen MacInerney writes with verve and vitality, and her Natalie Barnes is a Maine original. I'm ready to book a room at the Gray Whale Inn!”—Susan Wittig Albert, bestselling author of Nightshade and other China Bayles Herbal Mysteries

I really enjoyed this book because of the mystery within the mystery as well as the history of the Underground Railroad that was included.

Natalie Barnes runs a B&B on Cranberry Island off the coast of Maine. In this installment her B&B is being taken over for a weight-loss retreat so Nat has been perfecting sugarless cocoa and egg white omelets just to name a few items on the menu. The buzz on the island is all about a skeleton found in a secret room in the lighthouse. Was it the long lost lighthouse keeper? When the attendees arrive on the island along with the leaders - a gorgeous Size 0 and the muscular fitness trainer, everyone seems excited about the hike taking them to the lighthouse, however, the trainer is a no show. But not for long. The group finds his body along the way and when it is determined that he was poisoned, Natalie has problems again because the B&B kitchen has to be shutdown until the poison/poisoner are found. Natalie takes the time to look into the story of the lost lighthouse keeper.

The two mysteries were cleverly interwoven and the characters are growing along with the series.
Looking forward to the next one. ( )

Very enjoyable mystery. Many twists and turns. A clue-filled murder mystery at the Gray Whale Inn, with a secondary skeleton discovered in the lighthouse, that is a suspected murder victim from 150 years before. ( )

Another good mystery series about a bed and breakfast, this one on the Maine coast. Likable characters, pleasing setting, and interesting action. Made me want to go to Maine. Look forward to reading others in this series, the Gray Whale Inn mysteries. ( )
