The Island Breeze is a wonderful free newspaper around the Hatteras Island area. It contains news and stories about the Hatteras Island area on the Outer Banks. In July the Summer Reading Roundup will be released for residents and tourists. The list is to help people find out about new books that would appeal to the people who live and love Hatteras Island. This list is compiled by Gee Gee Rosell of Buxton Village Books. If you've never been to Buxton Books, its on the main road that runs along Hatteras Island and the store is about five minutes from the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Gee Gee is a very nice and very knowledgable person. She has a wonderful selection of local interest books - including Lilah and the Locket. She has another order of books coming and they should be there just in time for the Reading Roundup.
Here's a preview of the review for Lilah and the Locket -
History and romance form this murder mystery set literally at the base of the Cape Hatteras lighthouse. The time is 1954 and the CCC is hard at work constructing dunes along the length of Hatteras Island. Kristie and her German shepherd Lilah are vacationing in Buxton. On an early beach walk one morning Lilah returns with what appears to be a human bone. The investigation involves a hunky government worker, the local deputy and the good folks of the village of Buxton. Ms Leigh has crafted an atmospheric tale with lots of local color. She lives in Virginia has several other romantic mysteries in print.
For much more information about Lilah, feel free to visit www.nikkileigh.com/lilah.htm. Gee Gee stocks copies of all the Nikki Leigh fiction and they are a great fit with an ocean side vacation, especially within view of the lighthouse.
