"Kaylani has been sleuthing ever since her father was imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit. Now, against her will, she finds herself with family friends among Martha’s Vineyard’s Black elite – a world far removed from the life she knew in Brooklyn. And that’s before the blood-soaked body appears. This rip-roaring whodunit is filled with references to Jaws and Martha’s Vineyard’s Black history. And Kaylani’s detective instincts will delight budding mystery fans. (For ages 9 to 12)"
