Wind in the Sails

Jeremy Dance is young, rich, and tough. It's the summer of 1939 and the United States is far from the turmoil of Europe, yet Jeremy Dance Restorations has plenty of cases to investigate. "I restore things;" says Jeremy. "Sometimes it's missing objects, sometimes it's missing persons, and sometimes it's missing clues in a case of murder. I restore reputations and peace of mind to my clients, and my services don't come cheap." Jeremy solves two straightforward cases, but when Jeremy's former stepmother goes missing, suspicion falls on Jeremy's father. It's up to Jeremy to find out what happened to the missing woman, but perhaps there is more to the case than he first realizes. Later on as Jeremy sails away on a research expedition to the Caribbean, he is called on to write up a report when one of the passengers suffers an accident. But was it an accident? With travel to Boston, Philadelphia, Maine, Cuba, Jamaica, and Newport, Jeremy and his crew of colorful characters will have a summer they won't soon forget.
