cheat, and steal their way onto his list of suspects.... Add in a

water taffy on a pulling machine, this clever whodunit is the
perfect getaway, a great beach read that includes the actual
beach." --Elena Hartwell, author of One Dead, Two to Go

humor." --Michelle Stanley for Readers' Favorite Reviews

conclusion." --Kait Carson, author of the Hayden Kent Mystery
series
