Meet the main character of Meg Daniels. She’s a young woman just like any other, except she’s about to find out that some vacations are more stressful than others. She is in the middle of a deep sleep when she is woken up by police fairly early on in her vacation. That is exactly how she finds out the horrible news.

It turns out that a boss she used to work for has suddenly been located, and he’s dead. What makes this look suspicious is that his dead body was found awfully close to the Ocean City beach house that she had decided to rent in New Jersey. Considering the link between herself and this former employer, things don’t look good for Meg.

The circumstances are all adding up to a very sticky situation. They don’t have any suspects for the murder, except for Meg. Now she has somehow become the prime suspect in the case. What’s even worse is that there appears to be evidence that is coming up and working against her. This is definitely not how she pictured her relaxing vacation going.

Meg is forced to try and figure out what’s going on before it’s too late. From Pine Barrens to Atlantic City to her vacation spot Ocean City, Meg will go anywhere to try and find the answers that she’s looking for. The last thing that she’s thinking about is the actual killer. So when she becomes a target for them, the stress of this experience goes through the roof.

It’s not up to Meg to figure out who did this, but if she can, then she’ll clear her name and a killer will be off the streets to boot. Can she do it? You’re going to have to check out this murder mystery and all of the suspense for yourself to find out!

Cape Mayhem is the second book to come out in the Meg Daniels series. Meg is the perfect protagonist, tall, smart, and pretty. Her adventures continue in yet another well composed book from Jane Kelly!

Meg Daniels is single for the moment, and that is the perfect way to start off any vacation. Unattached to any man, she has made her way to Cape May with the intention of enjoying a vacation in the off season. Even though she’s single, there’s no reason why the location and her mood should make it any less romantic.

She may have come here for a vacation, but somehow discovers that she has stumbled onto a mystery. It’s a unique case, but a female guest at the bed and breakfast that she’s staying at has gone through a transformation that some might call impossible.

Meg doesn’t understand what has happened, but she knows when something is off. So she decides to go down to the local office of the DA in town and try to get an investigator to help her out. Luckily, the investigator there is very handsome and down to take on the cause. She also is able to enlist the feisty co-owner of the Parsonage Bed & Breakfast to assist her as well.

Meg simply needs to know the identity of the woman who was checking in (with the guest Wallace Gimbel, no less). As Meg and her allies begin to follow a trail, they may just find out more than they bargained for. With fake identities, infidelity, and perhaps even murder on the list, her gut instincts were right. Where will they take her? Read Cape Mayhem to find out!
