Speurder Adriaan Kruger en sy nuwe vrou vind nog hul voete in hul nuwe tuisdorp toe Adriaan met ’n raaiselagtige verdwyning en ’n vergiftiging gekonfronteer word. Verder lyk dit asof ’n onopgeloste saak daarmee verband hou. Drie misdade met oënskynlik geen raakpunte, maar los jy één op, vermoed Adriaan, word die ander los drade ook vasgeknoop.
In Drie moorde in die Baai bewys Madelein Rust weer eens hoe naatloos sy tussen genres kan beweeg. Dié spanningsvolle en skerpsinnige intrige is boonop propvol kwinkslae én ontluikende romanse.
