Here's the blurb from the book:
Amateur sleuth Cleopatra Jones of rural Hogan’s Glen,
Maryland faces an unwanted hazard when she skulls her golf ball across the
number six green and it lands in the inseam of a very dead banker. Though the
victim is a longtime friend of Cleo’s, his ongoing dispute with Cleo’s best
friend and golfing partner, Jonette, is public knowledge. When the police key
in on Jonette as the prime suspect, Cleo sets out to find the real killer.
Amidst the fun of wacky meals, dueling daughters, Mama’s
heart problem, lovesick Saint Bernards, a sexy golf pro, a repentant ex-husband
and a host of murder suspects, Cleo does what she does best. With her trusty
spreadsheets and logical accountant’s brain, she organizes the information and
ferrets out a crazed killer.
Set against the lush splendor of mid-Atlantic springtime,
this fun-packed mystery with a dash of romance will keep you turning the pages
to see what happens next.
