A Vineyard Killing: Martha's Vineyard Mystery #14 by Philip R. Craig

A Vineyard Killing by Philip R. Craig blends the charm of small-town coastal life with an engaging murder mystery full of twists, local color, and memorable characters.
 
What begins as a relaxing season quickly becomes anything but when an unexpected killing shakes the island. As J.W. digs deeper, he uncovers a complicated mix of long-standing resentments, suspicious newcomers, and tangled personal histories. The clues lead through fishing docks, nature trails, back-road diners, and the close-knit Vineyard community—where everyone knows everyone, but not everyone tells the truth.
 
With his trademark warmth, humor, and sense of place, Craig delivers another satisfying cozy mystery that balances island atmosphere with suspense.
