Peaceful Pear Island is perfect for fishing, relaxing, boating - and
committing murder. Jim Qwilleran, Koko, and Yum Yum get more than they
bargained for when they begin to investigate several "accidents." The
development of a major resort complex at the southern end of Pear
Island, affectionately known as Breakfast Island, is turning the town
upside down. Local residents, summer people, and mainland fishermen are
all hopping mad that the peace of their retreat is being shattered. But
who is angry enough to murder? When a cabin cruiser explosion in the
marina sets off a series of "accidents, " Qwilleran begins to wonder if
sabotage is involved. But he has his work cut out for him. There are
plenty of suspects, plenty of motives, and plenty more "accidents"
occurring. Can Qwill and the cats uncover the murderer's identity before
they become the victims of one of the many mishaps plaguing Breakfast
Island? With Koko and Yum Yum on the scene, you can bet that the
mysterious events on Breakfast Island will be exposed. But will it
happen before someone else is killed?
