Breaking Ground — William Andrews

Julie Williamson is embroiled yet again in another mystery set at the Ryland Historical Society in western Maine. This time, a well-known benefactor is murdered on the morning of the ceremony to celebrate construction of an important new building. As she did in Stealing History, Julie, the historical society's puzzle-loving director, can't help but want to solve the murder, much to the dismay of those around her. From the familiar board of trustees to the tireless town police chief, to Julie's professor boyfriend, Andrews presents another suspenseful novel filled with Maine characters and history.
