Dead Man's Hand: A St. Simons' Angels Mystery

By Jerry Burke

Merlin Murdock has lost a bet! In a high-stakes poker game, he gambles away a comic book! But not just any comic book, it's his most prized possession: a rare and valuable comic worth forty grand! To add insult to injury, before he can deliver the comic book to the winner, the comic is stolen! Kat Simon, amateur sleuth extraordinaire, still recovering from a recent breakup and the loss of a friend, decides to investigate at Merlin's urging. Little does Merlin realize, that she suspects him of trying to commit insurance fraud, but as she delves deeper, she discovers Merlin may be innocent. With the help of her sisters, Grace and Charlie, and her best friend, Riley, Kat uncovers that the stolen comic is only the beginning of a much larger conspiracy. As she gets closer to the truth, a murder escalates the stakes and makes everyone a suspect! Kat and her friends must decipher mysterious riddles and navigate the island's colorful characters to find the real culprit. They soon realize that the theft and murder are connected and that someone is willing to kill to protect their secrets. Kat must race against time to expose the truth and catch the killer before she and her friends become the next victims of the Dead Man's Hand!
