The second home [sound recording] / by Clancy, Christina,author.; Gilbert, Tavia,narrator.; Macmillan Audio (Firm),publisher.;
Read by Tavia Gilbert."After a disastrous summer spent at her family summer home on Cape Cod, seventeen-year-old Ann Gordon was left with a secret that changed her life forever, and created a rift between her sister, Poppy, and their adopted brother, Michael. Now, fifteen years later, her parents have died, leaving Ann and Poppy to decide the fate of the Wellfleet home that's been in the Gordon family for generations. For Ann, the once-beloved house is tainted with bad memories. Poppy loves the old saltbox, but after years spent chasing waves around the world, she isn't sure she knows how to stay in one place. Just when the sisters decide to sell, Michael re-enters their lives with a legitimate claim to the house. But more than that, he wants to set the record straight about that long ago summer. Reunited after years apart, these very different siblings must decide if they can continue to be a family-and the house just might be the glue that holds them together. Told through the shifting perspectives of Ann, Poppy, and Michael, this assured and affecting debut captures the ache of nostalgia for summers past and the powerful draw of the places we return to again and again. It is about second homes, second families, and second chances. Tender and compassionate, incisive and heartbreaking, The Second Home is the story of a family you'll quickly fall in love with, and won't soon forget"--

A side of murder / by Pershing, Amy.;
Samantha Barnes finds herself back in her hometown on Cape Cod, working as a food writer and licking her wounds after her once-successful life as a chef in the Big Apple comes to a shrieking halt. Samantha has inherited her great-Aunt Ida's dilapidated house, which comes complete with an enormous puppy. Although it's not exactly a windfall, it might be just the retreat Samantha needs. Until it's not. Sam's new boss--and old friend--Keisha is very, well, bossy, and wants Sam to do online video food reviews in addition to traditional print reviews. Her friends Jenny and Miles insist on believing Sam is home for good (she definitely is not), and the town's new harbor master is none other than her old flame, Jason Lopes. And then there's the matter of the body Sam finds in Arey's pond. The body of the woman who tore Sam and Jason apart ten years ago, Estelle. Everyone says it must be accidental--but Sam is sure there's something fishy going on. With no one else inclined to investigate, Sam knows it will be up to her to deliver justice.
