Fast-paced, suspenseful, and emotionally involving, "TWILIGHT" is Nancy Pickard at her popular and groundbreaking best; once again she weaves her renowned fictional spell around the mysteries of the human heart.
Jenny Cain's wish to establish a recreation hall for former mental patients in the basement of a burned-out building is thwarted when a man is killed there and it appears the killer may be mentally ill.
Bright and beautiful Jenny Cain, director of the Port Frederick Civic Foundation, was dying of curiosity. A hapless visitor had slipped in the mud at the town's historic cemetery-and fallen right into an empty grave!
When Jenny discovered that all the graves were vacant, it was the beginning of murder. Someone had killed an employee of the Harbor Lights Funeral Home, and played a macabre practical joke with the body. Suddenly, everyone in town is suspect, from the victim's grieving widower to the spike-haired gravedigger to the unctuous director of the Harbor Lights. Now Jenny has to dig up some answers, and fast-before the killer leaves her silent as a tomb!
