Off Season

Description

Tourist season may be over…
but the killing season has
just begun.

There’s nothing like Martha’s Vineyard on these crisp autumn days, after the season has ended. Now that the “off-islanders” are finally off the island, ex-Boston cop J.W. Jackson is free to relax, fish, and make future plans with his lady love Zee. But the natives are getting seriously restless this fall, with animal rights activists squaring off against deer slayers and environmentalists butting heads with land developers. Things have reached the boiling-over point — and it’s not long before verbal arrows become real ones. And when a most unlikely victim is caught in the lethal crossfire, Jackson can’t just sit by idly with a fishing pole in his hand. Someone has to lead the hunt for a killer, and J.W.’s the man — even if there’s a chance that he won’t live to see next summer.
