While restoring her Hilton Head home after a brush with a
hurricane, PI Bay Tanner reluctantly accepts bestselling true-crime
writer Winston Wolfe as a client. Arrogant and secretive, Wolfe is
researching the cold-case disappearance of reclusive millionaire
Morgan Tyler Bell from his secluded private island off the South
Carolina coast. Adding to the mystery, Bell's personal assistant
vanished as well. But what has Bay's investigative antennae
quivering is the apparent suicide at the time of Bell's longtime
housekeeper. After viewing the scene inside the millionaire's
abandoned mansion on Jericho Cay, Bay isn't so sure she should've
taken the case.
Bay's husband and new employee is hot to pursue the inquiry. A
former sheriff's deputy, Red would like nothing better than to
solve the one case his old boss has never been able to close. But
as Wolfe's behavior becomes more and more bizarre, Bay is torn
between her desire to earn her hefty fee and her fear that
something much more sinister is going on just below the surface. Is
Bell dead or alive? And who is the elusive man in the red baseball
cap who just may hold the answers to all her questions?
While dealing with another tragedy that strikes at the heart of her
family, Bay Tanner must dig beneath the lies and evasions that
threaten all she holds dear--and her own life as well.
"Jericho Cay" is filled with Southern charm and local color, making
it a terrific addition to Kathryn R. Wall's sultry Lowcountry
series, one of the most absorbing on bookshelves today.
