Dead in THAT Beach House
by Marcia Rosen
writing as M. Glenda Rosen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Mystery
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
August
21, 2020, A Senior Sleuths Mystery, “Dead In THAT Beach House,”
Published by Level Best Books is the third in the series and available at your
local book store, Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com. This series of murder and
mayhem is written in a modern noir style with charming, witty, deliciously
clever soft-boiled sleuths.
***
Once
we had arrived in the Hamptons, settled in and I felt comfortable, I began to
add small amounts of poison to the evening cocktails. It was from the oleander
flowers. I had planted them carefully behind the barn in Ames. After only
weeks, they were falling ill, listless, crying to go back to Ames. They felt
too sick at the beach house. It was simple.
I
know you must think I’m a monster. But, really, they felt very little when I
strangled them to death thanks to the poison in their system. When they were
dead, I filled my library with books about murder and witchcraft. The note I
leave for whomever might find them might explain what happened...
The
Senior Sleuths, Dick and Dora Zimmerman, much like Nick and Nora Charles from
the Thin Man series, and their cozy group of interesting, quirky friends take
on crooks and murderers while dealing with an outrageous case of elder abuse.
Later:
“Shall we say invitations are mandatory?”
“Absolutely,
dear. We wouldn’t want anyone to miss the fun”
“They’re
either belligerent, arrogant, or simply annoyed,” Zero whispered to Cloud as
the so-called guests arrived. They were all murderers and those who had
committed crimes against the elderly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT THREE:
Sewn
inside the striped petticoat were two old metal skeleton keys.
Dora
and keys. They did get her in trouble.
Jake
took pictures of the keys with his cellphone and he and his mother agreed it
would be best to show them to Dick and Lily.
Then they would forward the photos of the keys to the sheriff, and
explain where they were found.
Lily
and Dick had found their own surprise in the library. There were several
shelves of books about murder. Another shelf had books on witches, witchcraft
and poisons. All the dust and cobwebs on them couldn’t hide the strangeness of
it all.
Dora
was determined to come back as soon as possible to look deeper amongst the
pages of murder and evil. It only made sense the books might reveal some truths
about the house and its owner.
The
dust unable to hide strange markings on those books made Dora very curious and
determined to look for possible answers inside their pages.
“What
kind of people owned this house?” Jake looked at his mother, clearly wanting to
get out of there.
