P.I. Bay Tanner is in the midst of restoring her Hilton Head home after a hurricane when Winston Wolfe, a bestselling true crime writer, approaches her with a most unusual missing person's case. The seemingly simultaneous disappearance of Morgan Tyler Bell and his personal assistant from his private island as well as the suicide of his housekeeper has never been completely put to rest. And Bell's sizable estate has been held up in court and will remain so until he's declared legally dead. Wolfe says he wants to help his old friend's family. Yet, this is exactly the kind of story that has made him wealthy, so as deep as his loyalties run his true motives may run deeper still. "Jericho Cay" is packed with southern charm, and local colour making it a terrific addition to one of the most absorbing mystery series in bookstores today.
