Megan Gerig: Beatrice Ophelia is Flickering Out, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Beatrice Sawyer is flickering out, for what might be the last time.

After being laid off yet again, Beatrice returns with her family to her childhood summer home to unwind. And maybe figure out how to move out of her parents' basement. The town is hosting their inaugural Smallmouth Bass Festival as a last-wick effort to attract tourists, and Beatrice hopes volunteering might shed some light on her future.

At first, things seem to be brightening. Beatrice rediscovers the candle shop her grandmother once owned, and a new dream sparks to life.

Until she stumbles upon her estranged aunt dragging away the marina owner's body.

When her grandfather insists on his daughter's innocence, Beatrice must shelve her newfound dream and team up with her brother and childhood best friend to clear her aunt's name. But as they dig deeper, Beatrice wonders whether their efforts will mend their family ties-or if she'll fail to save her aunt and have to watch her family go up in smoke.
