Book Description
Suspense, sensual relationships, quirky characters you will love and remember, crisp dialogue, wry humor, and a feel-good ending are a few of the reasons SPLENDOR BAY grabs you by the heart and sweeps you along on waves of emotion to its surprising conclusion.
Bill Glasscock, a suspended-for-malpractice attorney, wakes from his girlfriend Sally Solana's bed to a crystalline May morning in Splendor Bay. Before noon, Bill faces the challenge of his life. The stiff the local cops have found on the beach below Sally's bayview mansion is Bill's soon-to-be-ex-wife Eleana's lover, Governor Wallace Moreno. Bill's girlfriend Sally, the state's attorney general, is missing. So is wife Eleana, head of the state archives. And, in addition to having a complicated love life, Bill is quickly the prime suspect of a host of cops--local, state, and federal. All of which is just the catalyst Bill needs to abandon his sabbatical from life for a quest to save those he loves from a murderer.
