Murder Under The Palms
Classy septuagenarian Charlotte Graham, famous both as an actress and a sleuth (Murder Among the Angels, LJ 1/96), here lends a hand to friends in Palm Beach, Florida. Invited to town for a charity gala combining a ship-theme dinner with the debut of a jewelry line designed by her goddaughter and a local jeweler, Charlotte nearly witnesses the jeweler's murder. Since she's acquainted with the main suspects, police ask her help. Delightful characters, opulent and picturesque surroundings, the revival of a long-ago shipboard romance, and ever-present wit make this prime reading and one of the best titles in the series.Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
