Avery and her boyfriend have bought an old colonial house on an island in Maine to flip. As they start their renovations they find the body of a young woman floating in the sea on the way out to the island. The scrap of paper found on the body has an address written in Russian. The clue leads to their friend and realtor, Irina who is from the Ukraine. Despite the admonitions of the local deputy to stay out of it, Avery is drawn into the mystery by finding a secret room in their house and another body floating by the pier.
This was another quick read for me.
