Jackson’s new baby son Joshua. But an idyllic summer hits a snag when a movie scout from Hollywood invades the beaches. Worse, a longtime nemesis turns up murdered just one day after he and J.W. come to blows, and Jackson is considered by nearly everyone to be the most likely suspect.

Download or read book Shooting Star written by Cynthia Riggs and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Shooting Star, ninety-two-year-old poet Victoria Trumbull becomes embroiled in controversy at the community theater on Martha's Vineyard. The new artistic director has announced plans to replace local amateur talent with off-Island professionals, and the cast and crew react murderously. Victoria intended the theater's current production, her adaptation of Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, to debunk the common farcical movie-monster interpretation by returning to Shelley's original serious commentary on the Industrial Revolution. However, after the night of the dress rehearsal, Victoria loses control over the production, and her drama begins to take a strange course. On that night, the eight-year-old boy playing the part of Frankenstein's young brother disappears, and before a search can begin, a killer strikes. The Vineyard's police forces mobilize for an Island-wide search. In the original story of Frankenstein, the boy is the first victim of the monster, and Victoria fears that a copycat killer is following her playscript. She determines to find the missing boy and track down the killer before more deaths occur. Along with familiar Island characters from her previous books, the author introduces a cast of new and often eccentric players. Shooting Star, the seventh book in the Martha's Vineyard mystery series, explores the rich setting of the Island that author Cynthia Riggs knows well, from the rose-covered Dukes County jail on Edgartown's Main Street to the quaint ferry terminal in Oak Bluffs. It's a delightful read that both fans and newcomers to the series will be sure to enjoy.

Book excerpt: A collection of photographs shot on the island of Martha's Vineyard: For many people, Martha's Vineyard evokes scenes of boats on calm harbor waters, beautiful seascapes, and breathtaking sunsets. And while the Vineyard is absolutely all of those things, the greater attraction for my camera and me are the Vineyard people and scenes I see on a regular basis, whether it's going out at night, shooting photo assignments, hanging with friends, or whatever. For some reason, I seem to do my best work well after sunset. I love human engagement, I love movement, I love weird. Somehow in some mash-up of those elements come the photos that follow on these pages.
