The Phantom Fleet
The Moorings, Caldmere
A state grant for youth sailing has been paying for boats that don't exist. The auditor came quietly — and left with questions he can't answer.
Everyone has something to hide.
39. Former competitive sailor, shoulder injury at 26 ended his racing career. Athletic, political, adaptable. Charming but calculating. The smile doesn't always reach his eyes.
58. Builds and repairs boats. Came from the Azores at 17. Gruff, skilled, unsentimental about everything except boats. Speaks with an accent that thickens when angry.
Third-generation hotelier who knows every room, every hidden passage, and every regular's secrets. Precise, warm with guests, and quietly furious about the renovation that gutted the hotel's character.
