    About this ebook

    In the sweltering summer of 1936, investigator Jeremy Dance is looking forward to spending some time at his mountain retreat in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. Little does Jeremy realize that when he takes on a case for the lovely Nora Wilde that before the end of summer, Jeremy will find himself standing in a depression breadline, singing on a Vaudeville stage, and searching for an arsonist at the summer resort of Bar Harbor. If Jeremy can’t solve the cases he has taken on, he’s afraid that his whole summer will go up in flames.
