Publisher's Summary

On an early morning walk through the nature preserve on the east end of Folly Beach on their way to photograph the iconic Morris Island Lighthouse, Chris Landrum and his friend Charles Fowler’s peaceful morning takes an abrupt turn.

They encounter a woman who tells them she got separated from her husband during a storm, then claims they’d been relic hunting. Her husband can’t verify what he and his wife were doing. He’s dead - murdered.

With the horrific death on everyone’s mind, Theo Stoll, another of Chris’s friends, learns his recently widowed daughter-in-law is moving to Folly, saying she wants to be near her only living relative. But what does the woman Theo has never met really want? A family connection or to con the wealthy retiree?

Lies, contradictions, stories of ghosts, pirates, Civil War relics, and buried treasure combine with no shortage of murder suspects to challenge Chris and his friends to solve the crime that’s stumped the police. Not only solve it, but solve it before more are killed.

It made me smile.....

......and isn't that what a good story-teller does? The storyline is a little light but the narrator's tonal inflections more than makes up for it. Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters are funny and human!

Worst narration ever

Thought I was listening to a robot. Thought it would never end. Okay story but a very painful eight hours of listening to Mr. Block or his AI.
