Artifice - COMING SOON!
Mayenne Bay, a quaint harbor town on Maine's Mid Coast, once home to great sea captains, is in peril. Traditional maritime industries are no longer enough to sustain its people.
As the town takes steps to reinvent itself, unusual things happen that disrupt the status quo—closed door meetings, a stolen painting, missing items all over town and flagrant effrontery by a few outlanders. The natives are becoming restless.
Resolutely single, 29-year-old Claire Munro, struggles to find a place in her new hometown. Through her habit of people-watching and her peculiar magnetism for troubled strangers, she gains disturbing inside information about the townsfolk, but her usual good sense is clouded when she crosses paths with an intriguing artist.
