Publisher's summary

When Arley Fitchett's body washes up onto Maryland's Eastern Shore, Lieutenant Sam Tate, just two months into her new job, is charged with finding out who murdered the popular guide and treasure hunter. Fitchett, she discovers, was hunting a rare carving he believed had been stolen by Chesapeake Bay pirates in 1718 and hidden nearby. No one knows if the story is true, but several locals seem to share Fitchett's interest in the wooden bird with the sapphire eye. Any one of them could be the next victim. One of them is definitely the killer.

Fascinating

This book is a page turner (or whatever the equivalent term is for a book one listens to on Audible). Fascinating plot, vivid descriptions of the landscape and characters, interesting human dynamics. Particularly liked the author’s adept change in phrasing and tone between the 1700s and now.
