Synopsis

For the past two weeks, boat delivery captain, Em Ridge, has been ferrying a well-known TV conspiracy theorist around the waters of the Bermuda Triangle. She is tired of his tales of reptilian governments, middle-earth civilizations, and of course, all his theories about the Bermuda Triangle. Em just wants to finish up this assignment, get paid, and head back home to Maine. But a chance sighting fi nds them aboard a “ghost” sailboat. The salon is set neatly for supper, wine in the glasses, pots on the stove, bread on the table and not a soul aboard. Worse, she knows this boat. When a black cat slinks noiselessly around her feet, Em’s alarm hikes up to horror. Has someone purposely set this boat out here? Is it a warning? To her? Finding this boat plunges Em into a decades old mystery that threatens not only her, but her entire family. The Bitter End is the second book in the highly acclaimed Em Ridge Mystery Series which began with Night Watch. The adventure continues for widowed boat captain, Em Ridge.

About the Author

Linda Hall spent the early years of her writing career as a journalist and freelance writer. She also worked in the field of adult literacy and wrote curriculum materials for adults reading at basic reading levels. In 1990 Linda decided to do something she’d always dreamed of doing, she began working on her first novel. The book she wrote, The Josiah Files was published in 1992. Since that time she’s written twenty-one more mystery and suspense novels and many short stories and essays. Most of her novels have something to do with the sea. Linda grew up in New Jersey and her love of the ocean was born there. When she was a little girl Linda remembers sitting on the shore and watching the waves and contemplating what was beyond. She could do that for hours. Linda has roots in two countries. In 1971, she married a Canadian who loves the water just as much as she does. They moved to Canada and have lived there ever since. One of the things they enjoy is sailing. In the summer they basically move aboard their 34’ sailboat, aptly named - Mystery. Both Linda’s husband Rik and Linda have achieved the rank of Senior Navigator, the highest rank possible in CPS. The U.S. sister organization is the U.S.P.S. Linda’s Senior Navigator diploma hangs proudly on her office wall. What this all means is that she knows how to use a sextant and can ‘theoretically’ find her way home by looking at the stars. Rik and Linda have two grown children, seven grandchildren and one very spoiled cat.
