Murder at Augusta: a Darwin Summers Golf Mystery

Murder at Augusta: a Darwin Summers Golf Mystery

A famous detective. A legendary golf course. Eighteen holes to unmask a killer.

There is a victim: a con man killed by a blow to the head from a seven iron. There is also an accused: a wealthy and respected entrepreneur seen fleeing the scene. In the eyes of the police, it's an open and shut case. In the eyes of Darwin Summers, world famous detective turned golfer, it is a chance to sharpen his game.

Darwin Summers has retired. He's put a driving range behind his estate and spends his days there, swinging a golf club. He's content; his assistant, Jake Maddox, is not. The excitement's gone, so are the headlines, and Jake's considering a new line of work. That is until a beautiful young woman, Margaret MacIntosh, visits the estate. Her father is accused of murder, and she's come to convince Summers to take his case. Jake passes on the bad news: Summers doesn't do much of anything anymore if it doesn't involve golf.

But Margaret won't take no for an answer, and she and Jake launch a plan to lure Summers from retirement. The bait is golf at Augusta National Golf Club, one of the country's most exclusive golf clubs and home to the most prestigious tournament in golf, the Masters. Summers ultimately agrees to work the case, though only on the most unusual of terms. Will he surprise everyone? Will he solve the murder, and do so during a round of golf at Augusta National?

At the core of the novel are eighteen chapters, one for each of Augusta National's holes. By the eighteenth green Summers has deduced the identity of the killer, and the reader has absorbed fascinating bits of lore about the course, the Masters, and the great players from Bobby Jones to Jack Nicklaus to Tiger Woods to Jordan Spieth. A classic who-done-it which will appeal to golfers and non-golfers alike, and will hold special interest to fans of the Masters.
