The staff at Salem, Massachusetts's local station, WICH-TV, is looking forward to the wedding of their program director, Lee Barrett. But when Lee heads off on her Maine honeymoon, she'll be haunted by the ghosts of her own past . . .

Lee and Detective Sergeant Pete Mondello are finally tying the knot—and Lee is tying up loose ends before the big day. It'll be an adjustment moving out of Aunt Ibby's house, but the couple will stay nearby—after all, they have to share custody of O'Ryan, their clairvoyant cat. And Aunt Ibby will be renting out Lee's old apartment . . . though she's getting some bad vibes from her current prospective tenant.

After the celebration, complete with a cake made by the station magician, there should be time to relax—but the Maine island happens to be near the site of the crash that long ago killed Lee's parents, a mystery she's never been able to solve. Soon she'll be putting wedding gifts aside and turning to her psychic gifts instead, to wrap up crimes both past and present . . .

      A program director for a TV station just can't leave her days as an investigative journalist behind. Lee Barrett likes being on the production end of things at WICH-TV in Salem, Massachusetts. It gives her access to a wide variety of program material, from Ranger Rob's Rodeo to Tarot Time With River North to Cooking With Wanda the Weather Girl. It gives her an in with local celebrities like Fabulous Fabio, an aspiring magician whose day job involves baking the tastiest cakes in town. It allows her to score one of Fabio's fabulous creations for her upcoming wedding to police detective Pete Mondello in return for giving Fabio a chance to showcase his sleight of hand on Ranger Rob's. And it gives her time to order flowers, have her dress altered, pick out invitations, and buy a new home, tasks her old schedule as a reporter would never have allowed. Lee's ready to leave the home she's shared with her Aunt Isobel since her parents' tragic deaths in a plane crash on Pirate's Island when she was almost 5. Unfortunately, the tenant first in line to take her place in Aunt Ibby's newly renovated bed-and-breakfast is Fenton Bishop, a mystery writer who learned his craft in the slammer after pleading guilty to the murder of his wife. With Pete's help, Lee looks into Bishop's past. At the same time, station manager Bruce Doan wants her to do a piece on Pirate's Island while she and Pete are stopping there during their honeymoon to visit her aunt and uncle. Perry teases readers long and hard with the mystery of which puzzle Lee will try to unravel before she lets her heroine get down to the actual unraveling. Just what all proper brides should have: something old and something new.
