Fast-paced, suspenseful, and emotionally involving, Twilight is Nancy Pickard at her popular and groundbreaking best; once again she weaves her renowned fictional spell around the mysteries of the human heart. In this mysterious tale the fortunes of Port Frederick, Massachusetts, are riding on the upcoming Autumn Festival, sponsored by the Judy Foundation, founder and director, Jenny Cain. As if running the fair wasn't enough, Jenny's life and her own fortunes become much more complicated when she is swept into a long-running, deadly controversy which, to her horror, threatens disaster for those she holds dear.

User reviews

LibraryThing member CandyH
Another truly great Jenny Cain mystery by Nancy Pickard. It was nice to be reminded of the author's wonderful way of creating twists and turns right to the end of the story.
LibraryThing member AliceAnna
Not one of her best ones. Jenny didn't seem as sympathetic a character as usual. The whole insurance problem was just dumb. If it was that important, why didn't she go to the home office and stir things up? I don't know; it just didn't track.
