But whats he doing shot to death on Jakes property? Jakes bewitching tenantsincluding an ex-cop, a con man, and a mute teenage girlclaim to have been too busy conjuring spells to have heard or seen a thing. Then a member of the coven disappears without a trace and Jake doesnt think its a case of witchcraftbut a kidnapping...or worse.Scandal, secrets, and a mysterious box buried deep in the foundation of her own home are just the beginning of a mystery that threatens to bring Jakes houseand lifecrashing down. Now she and Ellie are racing to find a missing girl who may be the key to it all...or lead them to a killer holding the final nails to their coffins.Praise for the Home Repair Is Homicide Mysteries of Sarah Graves:Anyone who can mix slaughter and screwdrivers is a genius. Plus, anyone who has bought a home that needs even a new toilet seat is probably consumed with murderous thoughts.Boston HeraldLike the old Victorian homes she describes...Graves stories seem to grow better with the passing of time....Readers who enjoy solving mysteries and fixing up older homes will appreciate Jakes do-it-yourself expertise in both areas.BooklistA sleuth as tough as the nails she drives into the walls of her 1823 Federal home enhances a clever plot, which comes to an unexpected and explosive conclusion. Many will relish the vividly described Down East setting, but for anyone whos ever enjoyed making a home repair its the accurate details of the restoration of Jakes old house that will appeal.Publishers WeeklyThink Diane Mott Davidson with a tool belt instead of recipes!Denver PostFrom the Hardcover edition.
