Cranefly Orchid Murders : A Martha's Vineyard Mystery

Victoria Trumbull is a feisty ninety-two-year-old who refuses to let her age stop her from having fun-or investigating crime. When Victoria's knowledge of her native Martha's Vineyard helped to solve a murder in Deadly Nightshade, she earned her own baseball cap emblazoned with "e;West Tisbury Police Deputy."e; Now the authorities will turn to her again to help uncover another scandal on the idyllic island.Phoebe Eldridge, a short-tempered woman who lives alone, has sold the family land to a developer who made an offer that seemed too good to resist. When the Conservation Trust enlists Victoria to search that land for an endangered plant, she and her eleven-year-old after-school assistant are rewarded with the discovery of a little nest of cranefly orchids-and a body. If Victoria isn't careful, a killer might take her off the endangered list-and make her extinct.
