Rotten Lies

Charlotte Elkins

0/5 ( ratings)

How do you murder someone with lightning? When Ted Guthrie, the most hated man at the Cottonwood Creek Country Club in Los Alamos, New Mexico, is found dead on the golf course after a thunderstorm, it seems like an act of God. But the death kills struggling beginner Lee Ofsted’s first chance at winning on the women’s pro circuit as well. After a record-breaking opening round at the High Desert Classic, she injures her arm trying to revive Ted. So when the coroner suspects the lightning strike was no accident, Lee sees red instead of green.
At twenty-three, playing the tour on a shoestring, and dedicated to the game, Lee has talent, courage, and an intuitive sense for seeing the way things lie...whether they’re golf balls or nasty plots for murder. She senses something foul in this tournament, and she’s soon teamed with her lover, California cop Graham Sheldon, to make her snooping a twosome. She’s certain someone close to the game is the culprit, and all of the country club’s colorful characters are suspect...from the old geezer holding a golf umbrella near the body to her own cranky caddy, Lou.
Yet nearly getting killed herself proves a bigger handicap than she’s used to. Now Lee is playing against time as a murderer strikes again—and hits close to home—in this witty whodunnit that entertains from the first page to the last.
