From Put-in-Bay to Middle Bass Island After Labor Day, the residents of South Bass Island and its popular resort village of Put-in-Bay were looking forward to a calm fall following a busy summer. That changed when they were shaken by the news that one of their well-liked bed & breakfast owners had disappeared.
Elke White's disappearance appeared suspicious to police from the get-go, and investigators soon focused on her husband, Spider. Rumors abounded about marital strife and an affair.
Did Elke run away from her troubles or was her disappearance a homicide? And what was the motive? Who was responsible? And what about the connection to Middle Bass Island? Suspects were lining up like planes waiting to land at an airport.
Emerson Moore finds himself entangled in a spiderweb full of mystery as he investigates her disappearance. It's a scrambled jigsaw puzzle of suspects.
