Island Getaway, An Art Crime Team Mystery - Plot & Excerpts
Seating was family style, on long wooden benches by rough wooden tables. Annika had thought about putting on her blue dress again, but when she walked through the door, she was glad she hadn’t. The place wasn’t fancy; most of the patrons were dressed just as she was, in jeans and T-shirts. She’d have looked severely out of place in the blue silk. The food was good, though. Traditional Swedish cuisine: pickled herring and wheat bread, boiled potatoes with a sprinkling of fresh parsley, and thick pea soup. Annika ate until her stomach hurt, and then sat back and looked around. “This is a great place. How did you know about it?” It was tucked up close to the city wall, out of the way of the tourists, and she doubted it featured in the vacation brochures. Most of the patrons seemed to be local: grizzled old men with rosy cheeks and clear blue eyes, and young families with tow-headed children. A shadow seemed to cross Curt’s face, or maybe it was just the darkness inside the tavern.
