So impressed by today's #BluePit📖! My #agentsguide to FRAGILITY OF SEASHELLS 🐚 🌊 An unexpected inheritance, tacky shell art, dueling in-laws, & Mark Twain’s unconventional wisdom lead Esidora to the shocking truth of her aunt’s death on a remote Maine island 🌲 #A #Q #M #amquerying #writesky

Poster for THE FRAGILITY OF SEASHELLS (adult mystery)

Pitch: Deposited in a mail slot and raised by a moose—that’s how Esidora describes her unorthodox childhood growing up on Maine’s rugged coastline. Now a perpetual astrophysics doctoral student living in Chicago with her fiancé Tremblay (a Twain scholar), returning to Maine is the last thing on her mind… until she notified of her Aunt Beverly’s unexpected death back on Baribeau Island, and the stunning news that she is a co-heir to her aunt’s estate. But when she returns to the remote island to probe for answers and confront her own secrets of the past, peculiar things begin to happen. When Tremblay unexpectedly arrives on the island, the couple borrows from Tom Sawyer’s unique perspective as a fictional detective to unravel the mystery—and startling family secret—behind Beverly’s death.

Themes & Tropes: Remote Island, Unexpected Inheritance, Found Family, Generational Secrets, Amateur Sleuths, Obsessions, Academic Couple, Twainian Wisdom
