NOTES

Island time is now murder time!Nobody can tame the enigmatic and mysterious Daufuskie Island. Many have tried; most have failed.Now a baffling murder can be added to the often-dark history of the small island between idyllic Hilton Head, South Carolina and historic Savannah, Georgia. The body of a local man has been found at the long-deserted undertaker's shanty along with a sole clue that few will understand.Detective Angela Morton once again joins forces with a forensics expert, Nathan Swale, and rescue dog Dash. All three are damaged souls, but the healing has begun.Flowing amongst the meandering sandy trails, ancient graveyards, and gnarled live oaks dripping in Spanish Moss there is a mystique in the Daufuskie Island evening air. But in a place where folk magic and black magic still exist, is it an illusion or something more sinister?Angela and Nathan catch clues from the corners of their eyes, scan faces that reveal nothing and read between lines that make no sense. But can they find the killer before they are both mesmerized by the ancient magic spells of the Gullah people? Is the perpetrator lurking in the dark, dense woods or hiding in plain sight ready to strike again? And is the secretive and mysterious Mother Mabel a know-it-all or a knowing person who sees what others can't?If Angela and Nathan don't watch their backs, they too might become permanent residents in the sandy soil of a long-forgotten graveyard
