BLURB:
Hoping to promote the Glass Dolphin antiques shop, co-owners Arabella
Carpenter and Emily Garland agree to sponsor a hole in one contest at a charity
golf tournament. The publicity turns out to be anything but positive, however,
when Arabella’s errant tee shot lands in the woods next to a corpse.
They soon
learn that the victim is closely related to Arabella’s ex-husband, who had been
acting as the Course Marshal. With means, opportunity, and more than enough
motive, he soon becomes the police department’s prime suspect, leaving Arabella
and Emily determined to clear his name—even if they’re not entirely convinced
of his innocence.
Dogged by
incriminating online posts from an anonymous blogger, they track down leads
from Emily’s ex-fiancĂ© (and the woman he left Emily for), an Elvis
impersonator, and a retired antiques mall vendor with a secret of her own.
All
trails lead to a mysterious cult that may have something to do with the murder.
Can Arabella and Emily identify the killer before the murderer comes after
them?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT
Arabella Carpenter let the others go first. All
three managed to clear the pond with their tee shot and land on the green, but
not one was anywhere close to getting a hole in one. Arabella breathed a sigh
of relief—since they were sponsoring the contest, their foursome might not be
eligible to win, but it still freaked her out to think someone else might. She
went through her mental prep, took her swing, and watched as her ball went
directly into the woods.
“Hey, you made it over the water,” Hudson said,
hopping into his cart. “For someone just starting out, that’s not a bad shot.”
Arabella caught Emily’s look and smiled. He really
was a nice guy. “Thanks, Hudson. Whether I can find my ball is an entirely
different story. Why don’t I look for it while you guys putt in? I’m sure one
of you will be able to make the shot.”
They crossed the pond on a wooden bridge just wide
enough for their golf carts, parked on the path next to the hole, and grabbed
their putters. Luke, Hudson, and Emily went to the green and began debating
which ball to hit. Arabella trundled over to the woods, feeling stupid and
hoping like hell it wasn’t infested with poison ivy. The woods were thicker
than she’d expected. She walked in a couple of feet, using her putter to push
the branches aside.
That’s when she started to scream.
