Off Season — Philip R. Craig

TOURIST SEASON MAY BE OVER...BUT THE KILLING SEASON HAS JUSR BEGUN.

J.W. Jackson loves these crisp Vineyard autumn days after the season has ended. Now that the "off-islanders" are finally off the island, the ex-Boston cop is free to relax, fish and make future plans with his lady love Zee.

But this fall, the natives are getting seriously restless. Animal rights activists are squaring off against the deer slayers; environmentalists are at odds with land developers. And when verbal arrows become real ones-and a most unlikely victim is caught in the lethal crossfire--it is J.W. who must lead the hunt for the unfortunate soul's murderer.
