Dead Whales Tell No Tales

College professor, and amateur sleuth, Thomas Martindale is teaching a summer writing workshop at the Marine Science Center in the small town of Newport, Oregon. During the conference of the International Whaling Commission, a marine biologist is found dead on the beach in a disturbing place. When Martindale's former assistant is arrested for the murder, he must wade through the sea of growing suspects to save her. As he uncovers the dead man's sketchy past, a vast ocean of lies and deceit rise from the deep. Action-packed small town mystery that will keep you guessing until the whales sing.
