Read by Matt Haynes

Love is in the Salt Sea Airand So is Murder! Ellery Page, aspiring screenwriter, reigning Scrabble champion, and occasionally clueless owner of the villages only mystery bookstore, the Crows Nest, is both flattered and bemused when hes invited to the annual Marauders Masquerade, the best and biggest social event of the season in the quaint seaside village of Pirates Cove, Rhode Island. The event is hosted by the wealthy Marguerite Bloodworth-Ainsley, a descendant of the famed pirate Tom Blood. Ellery doesnt even know Mrs. Bloodworth-Ainsleynor, it turns out, does Mrs. Bloodworth-Ainsley know him. But Marguerites son, Julian, wants to know Ellery. Julian, handsome, rich, and engaging, is a huge mystery buff. In fact, hes bought quite a few books at the Crows Nest bookstore, but never quite worked up the nerve to ask Ellery out. As his relationship with Police Chief Carson seems to be dead in the water, Ellery is grateful for a little flattering attention from the villages most eligible bachelor, but any hopes of romance hit the shoals when Julian is accused of murdering his mothers unlikable second husband during the Masquerades annual ghost hunt in the familys spooky cemetery
