Dru’s Musing:
When her sister’s upcoming golf-themed wedding is marred by murder, Audrey is teed up to find the person responsible.

I could not put down this well-written drama that quickly became a page-turner as I was immediately immersed in all that was happening on the page. The mystery was executed with all that I enjoy in a whodunit with visually descriptive narrative, engaging dialogue, an eclectic cast of characters, a small-town atmosphere and a body or two that kept me both intrigued and in suspense as the multi-plot story unfolded. There were a few key elements that set the stage in how well this story was being told such as the relationship between all that were involved, an unburied secret, and a few red herrings that kept me in the game as the pieces came together with a swing and a miss – one that included a strategically placed twist that lead to the killer’s identity and the motive. This was an enjoyable read and one of the best books in this wonderful series and I do hope there are more adventures with Audrey and her friends.

Book Synopsis:
Local investigative reporter AUDREY O’CONNELL already has her hands full with Maid of Honor duties for her sister’s golf-themed wedding at the Chattertowne Country Club. Not to mention, the gossip mill is abuzz with news about Chattertowne’s own celebrity influencer ONYX CARPENTER, who is rumored to be bringing her rockstar husband MEACHAM FIELDS to the nuptials as her plus one.

But when Onyx’s former high school flame WILEY BARRETT is accused of killing one of his golf students in a coverup the day after her heralded homecoming, she insists he’s innocent and begs Audrey to help exonerate him…much to her husband’s dismay. When Wiley is found dead in a bunker on the sixteenth fairway following an argument with Meacham at the rehearsal dinner, the singer is the prime suspect.

With less than 48 hours before the ceremony and her sister’s special day hanging in the balance, Audrey must find what links the two deaths while fending off the descending paparazzi.
