#3 in the Judge Deborah Knott series, this one taking place on the Crystal Shore of North Carolina where Deborah has gone to sit in for a judge in another county while she spends time at her cousins' seaside island cottage. Before she knows what's going on, Judge Knott is standing over the dead body of a neighbor who's been shot. Though determined not to get embroiled in the investigation, it isn't long before Deborah is hearing far too much local gossip and finds her interest piqued. When she discovers a second body a few days later and uncovers some other illegal goings-on, she begins to wonder what information is connected to what, and which are red herrings. Enjoyable, light read though all the southern dialogue with the "ya'lling" and "Daddying" gets old after a bit for this northern girl. LOL I still like this series, though!
