When Miss Elsie Rutherford is invited to spend Christmas with her cousin, Sylvia Craven, on Desert Island on the coast of Maine, the little lady is elated at the prospect of seeing her family during the holiday season. However, on the second day of her stay, she goes for a stroll on the promontory, where she finds Sylvia's husband dead at the bottom of a cliff. Harry Graven was not supposed to be back in town until Boxing Day! Ultimately, Sylvia confesses that she suspected her husband of cheating on her, but as it turns out, he was cheating the bank where he worked by laundering money for organized crime. The murderer is the same guy who introduced Harry to the lucrative but very dangerous game of money laundering. In the end, Miss Rutherford is happy to spend Christmas with her family, which she thought she might not see for another year.
Murder on the Island is the first story in the Wilma Wade Holiday Mysteries.”
