Evening Trail Martha C

In a landscape rich with history, long buried secrets threaten to disrupt the lives that revolve around the powerful Leigh family. For decades, life on the remote Horne Island has been tranquil, connected through the seasons by dove hunting and trips across the river. But when a slick real estate agent starts hanging around and the owner of the island turns up missing, the people who have lived and worked on the property for years start to realize everything is not as it seems. Martha and Howard have worked on Horne Island, along with the tight-knit staff the Leigh family employs all year. Now that Mrs. Leigh had fallen ill, her two daughters start scheming to sell the island. When foul play is suspected in Mr. Leigh's death, everyone points to Roy, a caretaker with a nefarious history and deep ties to the Leigh family. But Howard has a hunch that the real estate agent might be involved. As he searches for clues, the police close in on Roy, and Howard must find the truth. Evening Trail is about family secrets and the inevitability of change.
