Slipknot (Jane Bunker Series)

Green Haven, Maine, is as far from the heat and violence of her past as Jane Bunker could hope for. When she trades in her career as a big-city homicide detective for a new job as a marine insurance investigator, Jane thinks that a fresh start in this sleepy seaside town will finally allow her the peace and quiet that she’s been craving. But when the town drunk washes up on shore - with the back of his head smashed in - Jane realizes that Green Haven is not the quaint sanctuary she’d thought it was. The townspeople don’t think the tragedy is anything more than a drunk’s long walk off a short pier, but once Jane discovers the sordid details of the dead man’s past, it occurs to her that this just might be one local problem she knows a lot about, from her former life in Miami.
