The busy summer tourist season is winding down in Busman''s Harbor, Maine, but Julia Snowden senses trouble simmering for the Snowden Family Clambake Company. Shifty David Thwing--the "Mussel King" of upscale seafood restaurants--is sniffing around town for a new location. But serving iffy clams turns out to be the least of his troubles. . .
When Thwing is found sleeping with the fishes beneath a local lobsterman''s boat, the police quickly finger Julia''s brother-in-law Sonny as the one who cooked up the crime. Sure, everyone knows Sonny despised the Mussel King. . .but Julia believes he''s innocent. Proving it won''t be easy, though. It seems there''s a lot more than murder on the menu, and Julia needs to act fast. . .
