Victoria Trumbull’s Martha’s Vineyard is a different kind of tour book, an insider’s guide to the Island. Author Cynthia Riggs takes visitors, old hands, and fans of the Martha’s Vineyard Mystery Series to some of the places where much of the action is set in her novels, and where some of the (fictional) bodies are found. Drive or bike to special places visitors seldom see, glimpse some of the Island’s delightful eccentricities – beetlebungs, pinkletinks, and lace stonewalls.
Illustrated lavishly with photos by Lynn Christoffers, and clear, witty maps by cartoonist Stephen (Step) Wesley, the book also includes poems by the late Dionis Coffin Riggs, on whom Victoria Trumbull is based.
Take the book with you and follow the step-by-step tours, or enjoy the book from the comfort of your armchair. Best of all, purchase several copies to give as gifts.
