Dear Friends,
Welcome back to Cedar Cove! There’s been lots going on in town since your last visit. Olivia, Jack, Grace, Maryellen, Jon and everyone else are eager to fill you in. You’re probably curious about who started the fire that destroyed The Lighthouse restaurant – and are you in for a surprise. So many of you wrote to tell me who you thought was responsible – and only one person guessed right.
In addition to the solution of that mystery, you’ll get an update on all the characters. I’m also going to introduce you to someone new, a chess player I loved the instant he turned up on the page. Bobby Polgar is one of my most unusual male characters. But wait – there’s more! (I love it when I get to say that.) If you’re interested in further updates on the characters, log on to my webpage and click on the Cedar Cove button. The characters themselves have written letters and as a bonus have included favourite recipes. (That’s because the author loves to cook and to eat – so the characters do, too!)
If you’re not online, you can contact me at my office, PO Box 1458, Port Orchard, Washington 98366, USA. I really enjoy hearing from my readers; I read and value every one of your letters.
Now relax and step out of your own world for a few hours and into the world of Cedar Cove. We’re so glad you stopped by. I hope you have a good time and that you’ll want to come again.
