William Phineas Farnsworth—or “Farnsy,” as he’s known to his friends—is a young police officer in his hometown on the Maine coast. Summer people have started migrating back, and Farnsy’s old flame Lucy, the ex-wife of a lobsterman, is as elusive as ever. Farnsy thinks his life has become as predictable as the tides—until he stops for a coffee at Waltz’s Soda Fountain and hears about rolls of Necco wafers that have turned up in cottages on nearby lakes. Farnsy’s detective instincts kick in, and he’s on the case. But when he finds Necco wafers in his own cottage and discovers his father’s favorite fishing lure is missing, the mystery gets personal. Can Farnsy find the perp while he tries to figure out the mysteries of love? Farnsy is a quirky and heartwarming read for anyone who loves Maine, has been to Maine, plans to visit Maine, or who just likes their Maine humor dry.
