Vol.1 of the Abel Rose Mystery Series. Rose is a private investigator akin to the tarnished knight variety having his own code of justice. He becomes involved in this unique case when delayed on his Monday morning tee time. Growing impatient he slips down to the green, to find the reason. A stray ball in the bunker, you might say, but this one was lying on a dead body. Hired by the victim's father he is drawn into a tangle of misconceptions, deception, and cons. In such an affair suspects are numerous, certainties are not.
