Once a snowbird, now full-time resident and sometime sleuth Kate Kennedy โis a stylish and sophisticated Miss Marple, seeking justice in sunny South Florida instead of a rainy English Village, and meeting the most delightfully eccentric suspects in the process.โ (Victoria Thompson, author of Murder in Chinatown)
ย
Tired of college, Kate Kennedyโs granddaughter, Katherine, drops out and heads for Florida, landing in the apartment of Kateโs best friend. In her quest for a new life, she takes up with a gang of surfers that go by name โThe Four Boardsmen of the Apocalypse.โ
ย
But catching waves can be a dangerous pastime. When Katherineโs surfer crush is killed in a shark attack, foul play is suspected, especially by the police. Fingers are pointing at Katherineโincluding, to Kateโs disappointment, that of her friend Detective Nick Carbone. Itโs up to Kate to prove her beloved granddaughterโs innocence or else Katherineโs โnew lifeโ will be spent behind bars.
