About this listen
On an early morning walk through the nature preserve on the east end of Folly Beach on their way to photograph the iconic Morris Island Lighthouse, Chris Landrum and his friend Charles Fowler’s peaceful morning takes an abrupt turn.
They encounter a woman who tells them she got separated from her husband during a storm, then claims they’d been relic hunting. Her husband can’t verify what he and his wife were doing. He’s dead - murdered.
With the horrific death on everyone’s mind, Theo Stoll, another of Chris’s friends, learns his recently widowed daughter-in-law is moving to Folly, saying she wants to be near her only living relative. But what does the woman Theo has never met really want? A family connection or to con the wealthy retiree?
Lies, contradictions, stories of ghosts, pirates, Civil War relics, and buried treasure combine with no shortage of murder suspects to challenge Chris and his friends to solve the crime that’s stumped the police. Not only solve it, but solve it before more are killed.

A knock on Chris Landrum's retirement cottage door proves that he doesn't have to leave home to find trouble. His friend, Mel Evans, a marsh tour-boat captain, arrives to tell Chris that there might be a little problem. Chris is shocked to hear that the little problem is that his friend is accused of murdering a college student. Before he has enough time for that to sink in, Chris learns that another friend from Larry's shady past is threatened to be exposed by a con artist and former partner-in-crime.

A bribery case gone wrong leads a woman into the deep, dank Carolina Lowcountry on a manhunt. Carolina Slade, a by-the-book federal county manager in the coastal lowcountry of South Carolina, reports an attempted bribe only to find herself a key player in a sting operation run by Senior Special Agent Wayne Largo from the IG Office in Atlanta. However, the IG isn't telling Slade everything about this case or the disappearance-presumed-murder of Slade's boss the year before. When the sting blows up, both cases are put on hold and Wayne is yanked back to Atlanta.

It made me smile.....
......and isn't that what a good story-teller does? The storyline is a little light but the narrator's tonal inflections more than makes up for it. Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters are funny and human!

Worst narration ever
Thought I was listening to a robot. Thought it would never end. Okay story but a very painful eight hours of listening to Mr. Block or his AI.
