Murder on the Precipice

In her follow up to the highly successful The Empty Chair ~ Murder in the Caribbean, national award-winning author Penny Goetjen engages readers in another captivating escapade, this time on the rocky coast of Maine. Set in a deceptively warm and cozy inn, Murder on the Precipice depicts the story of a missing female guest with eerie similarities to an unsolved disappearance years earlier when the property was used as an all-girls school.

Family obligations force Manhattan interior designer Elizabeth Pennington to put the big city in her rearview mirror and return to the inn, her childhood home where, in a tragic twist of fate, she lost her parents at a tender age. Faced with her grandmother’s failing health strained by the pressures of running the family business, Elizabeth navigates treacherous waters to save the inn from a killer in their midst. But in her search for answers as a deadly hurricane barrels up the coast, she uncovers details that question everything she thought she knew about herself, her family and her past.
