Connie Kale and Mandy O'Hare were friends when they were young,
before it mattered that Connie's father was the retired golf pro
turned greenskeeper at the posh Sankaty Head Golf Course, of which
the O'Hare family was the sole owner. But the time had come when
being from opposite sides of the tracks made a difference-and the
rift between Mandy and Connie was one that never really closed.
While Connie followed in her father's footsteps as a professional
golfer, Mandy turned into the town's golden girl-wild, rich,
irresponsible. Still, no one-least of all Connie-would have
predicted that Mandy would turn up at the Sea Breeze Motel with a
tough male stripper, one Tony Steel-and dead, to boot. Alfred, the
Governor, O'Hare doesn't take kindly to people who upset his
ambitions for his family. And with Mandy's father, Pudge, running
for Congress, he's particularly anxious not to have bad press
messing up his son's chances. Connie, just back from the grueling
pro circuit and newly-turned private detective, can't keep herself
from paying her respects at Mandy's funeral. After so many years,
she's astonished the Governor would even remember her-much less
invite her back to the O'Hare mansion for a drink. She knows the
Governor is never generous without a reason. When he offers to hire
her to get the real story on Mandy's death-and keep it out of the
local papers-Connie isn't sure if it's sentiment or snoopiness that
makes her say yes. But she soon finds that the privilege of being
in the Governor's circle comes with no strings attached... Old-time
money and small-town New England politics, the high life on Sankaty
Head and the low underside of life among the hustlers and dealers
of Rivermuth, all combine to make Slow Dancer a fresh new twist on
a classic mystery story.
