A golf course is the last place one would ever think a person would be murdered, but in this story, Murder on the 10th Green, a brutal, bloody murder took place while a married couple was putting out on the green of the private golf club in their upscale gated community of Plantation Bay. A shot was heard by a couple planting flowers in their backyard adjacent to the 10th hole of the golf course, followed by the extremely loud blood-curdling scream of help from a woman. When the couple planting flowers dropped what they were doing and scurried up the hill to see what the ruckus was, they encountered the bloody scene of a man lying on the green with the blood from his gaping head wound seeping into the turf. His wife was frantically hovering over his body as she tried in vain to help him.
Detectives Steve Ferrante and Alan Hurd are assigned to the case by Police Chief Sheila Adams. As the two detectives begin the investigation process, a number of people are found to be embroiled in the case one way or another. The very diverse and colorful characters slowly jump to life in ways not expected.
Not only is the story of murder and intrigue, but it also contains elements of romance, character suspense, financial mystery amid a Ponzi scheme, plus the mounting frustration by the police chief, mayor, and the two detectives.
I believe this story will hold your interest throughout.
