First in a series set on one of the islands off South Carolina. When Liz Talbot returns home after her beloved Grandmother's death to find that she's inherited her house, she's faced with a decision to stay in her childhood town or return to her life as a PI. Gram's house is prime property on the small island. Her decision to stay is met with the suspicion that Gram did not die a natural death. When her childhood friend who died at age 17 shows up as her âguardian spiritâ, Liz is led on a tangled web of conspiracy and a mounting body count! Very good read!
