Lee has been promoted from field reporter to program director. Keeping track of all the shows and managing the local TV personalities—including a cowboy, a clown, and a performing dog—has her head spinning. Perhaps that's what makes her take pity on the distraught woman she finds sitting alone on a bench on the Salem common. When she realizes that the poor woman doesn't even know her own name, Lee takes her into the warmth of the home she shares with her Aunt Ibby and their clairvoyant gentleman cat, O'Ryan. Maybe Lee can use her own psychic gifts to divine the woman's identity.
Lee's detective beau Pete Mondello wants to talk to the "Jane Doe," but before he can investigate, he's called to a crime scene. A body has been found washed up in a narrow harbor cove. As harmless as her new houseguest seems, Lee can't help but wonder if she may be harboring a killer . . .

A young woman with amnesia shows up in a town the same day as a dead body. Is that coincidence or something more? Though her promotion from WICH-TV field reporter to producer and program director has removed her from the front lines, Lee Barrett gets all of Salem's news fresh. So she's among the first to hear the word around the station that the town has yet another murder when an unidentified drowning victim washes ashore with his hands bound. Lee's been in a relationship with police detective Pete Mondello for a few years, but his cautious ways can't have rubbed off on her. On the very same day that she hears about the drowning victim, she sees a stranger sitting on a park bench unsure of who she is or how she got there and promptly invites the poor woman into her home. Lee is sure about her instincts--the stranger is obviously more scared of anything than anyone needs to be of her--but when Pete finds out, he's immediately suspicious. Lee has the support of her Aunt Ibby, who's both a friend and a housemate, and she's determined to figure out what's going on with the so-called Jane Doe (or Janie, as they quickly nickname her). Aunt Ibby brings the case to her seasoned friends for help, but as she and Lee learn more, they can't help wondering whether Pete is right. Is Janie a victim or a mastermind? The latest installment of this long-running series focuses more on the puzzle and less on the thrills.COPYRIGHT(2021) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
