coast of Maine.

AUTHOR'S BIO:
Jenifer LeCair has been an avid sailor since age 17. Over the past 16 years, her adventures aboard the Maine windjammers have taken her through pea soup fog and high seas. She has helped raise and furl many sails and taken her turn at the wheel. She has sailed to remote islands in the Gulf of Maine, and been aboard the winning schooner in the Esperanto Cup Race off the coast of Gloucester, Massachusetts. She has stood middle-of-the-night deck watch under a full moon while sailing back to Maine, and she has been on deck during a gale off the coast of New Brunswick. In her Windjammer Mystery Series Jenifer brings all these experiences to the fore in her descriptions of the sea and the ship, Maine Wind. Maine’s coastal regions are also vividly evoked in her very readable novels. The author prefers not to belabor the sailing aspect of her books, though, as she believes readers want a balance of many elements in a mystery novel.
        Ms. LeClair has a BA in English literature and has been writing for 25 years. She has two grown children and lives in Vadnais Heights, Minnesota, where she is currently working on the next novel in her Windjammer Mystery Series.

FROM THE AUTHOR:
If you like mystery novels set in out of the way places that give you a glimpse of a different style of life, you'll love Rigged For Murder and Danger Sector. Set on fictional islands in the Gulf of Maine, my novels give readers a feel for the maritime culture that governs so much of life in Maine. From the great wooden sailing ships to the daily business of hauling lobster traps, my books are filled with many factual details about sailing, lobstering, and Maine's history. But first and foremost, there's always an intriguing mystery to unravel, complete with all the quirky interesting characters one would expect to find in such a story.
