The Sea Turtle Did It

By Kay Dew Shostak

Book Overview

False crawl? Nesting season? Turtle monitors?Jewel Mantelle is just getting used to the humidity in her new Southern home on Sophia Island when turtle season opens way too early. At least it's too early according to her friends who volunteer with the Turtle Trackers. Have they really found a sea turtle nest, surrounded by garbage, on a stormy April morning?It doesn't seem likely when a body is discovered, buried where the eggs should be.Jewel has too much on her plate to worry about a false turtle nest. She's trying to clean up the old house her disinterested, on-the-road husband inherited in Sophia Beach's historic downtown. But when the body is found to have close ties to one of Jewel's new friends, her lunch bunch goes to work trying to solve the murder. Between college kids partying on the beach, a senator's illegitimate child, a lost sketch pad, and warring turtle factions hindering the investigation, it's a miracle Jewel even has time to try biscuits and gravy.But she finally did... and she's a fan.The Sea Turtle Did It is a clean and cozy beach mystery set in a historic small town. It'll keep you turning pages well after bedtime and slathering on more sunscreen to get a few more poolside pages in.
