The boat’s motor died as the storm approached…
Dr. Julia Fairchild and sister Carly flew to Virgin Gorda for a “no-detecting-allowed” vacation. Carly had extracted the promise from Julia because it seemed like they stumbled on bodies no matter where they went. Sun-bathing and drinking mai tais were to be the main event.
That was until they found a beautiful girl—very dead—on an ancient sacrificial altar while walking to an isolated beach. She had no identification, but an exotic necklace and silver slippers lay nearby. Never one to ignore a tragic death, Julia convinces Carly to help her learn more about what happened to the young lady.
The search becomes more urgent when a second girl disappears after dancing in a pirate movie being filmed at a beach.
With the storm approaching, the sisters race to find the kidnapper before there is another body.
SILENT SLIPPER, the fifth murder mystery novel in the Julia Fairchild series by PJ Peterson.
