To Not Be In Hamlet

In the small town of Hamlet a body floating in the lake is quite a shock for its quirky residents. When a second body is found they expect Sam MacNeil, mystery writer, who is temporarily shackled to his hometown, to solve the murder. The authorities do not need Sam's help, but the locals know their small town sheriff is not a detective. Sam is only housesitting and has no intention of getting involved in murder mysteries, romantic entanglements or reacquainting himself with the town's whimsical ways. But can Sam really remain just an observer? And the more questions he asks the more it seems he may need to figure it out before he becomes the next victim.
