Rock Point (Sharpe & Donovan) Read online

Page 6


  Rock Point was a small, tight-knit southern Maine fishing village. Everyone knew everyone else’s business, but Julianne’s short-lived romance with Andy Donovan, third-born of the four Donovan brothers, apparently had come as a surprise, especially, since she’d vowed never to get involved with a Donovan. Emma didn’t know either Andy or Julianne well. She’d only met Colin in September and was still figuring out who was who in his hometown.

  “What’s this woman’s name?” Emma asked. “Do we know her?”

  “Her name’s Lindsey Hargreaves. I don’t know her.”

  Hargreaves. Emma searched her memory but shook her head. “I don’t, either. Did she come to Rock Point looking for Julianne?”

  “I don’t know. I just know Julianne’s on her way to Ireland.”

  “And you don’t like it.”

  “Julianne’s as smart as they come, but she’s impulsive and she’s had a rough time lately. She’s never been that far from home. I doubt she’s been farther than Nova Scotia. Now all of a sudden she’s meeting some strange woman in some little Irish village.”

  “Are you concerned she’s running away because of her breakup with Andy?”

  “I know she is,” Colin said half under his breath. “This is her first trip overseas. It could be exactly what she needs, but I’d feel better if she wasn’t alone.”

  “We could drive over to Declan’s Cross tomorrow,” Emma said.

  He tilted his head back, eyed her again. “I didn’t like your look when I mentioned Declan’s Cross. Emma, is there a Sharpe connection to this village?”

  She sighed. “We can talk on the hike back to the car.”
