This is the 4th book in the Murder by the Sea series by Carol Ann Ross. She's on the run! Estelle has reinvented herself yet again and has brought along a new friend. She seems to make friends easily, but they don't last very long. What a bad mermaid!!
CAROL ANN ROSS is the author of the Murder by the Sea series, The Topsail Island Trilogy, and The Blue House Series. Having spent her childhood climbing sand dunes, doing the beach thing, and deep-sea fishing, Carol incorporates those experiences in the works she pens. Her novels are full of intrigue, romance, and incidious intent, all set in picturesque south eastern North Carolina. She is a graduate of UNC-A and Spring Hill College in Alabama.
When I write, I want the reader to SEE the setting or the characters. I've been to places like the one described in the excerpt and so pulling it from my memory was fairly easy.
Book Excerpt
The Mermaid Did It
Carrie decorated the fish market with glass buoys, crab pots and clam rakes. Nets hung from the walls holding assorted seashells, sand dollars and starfish. A wonderful painting of the bumblebee tower surrounded by sand dunes adorned one wall. A mural of a mermaid sitting on a jetty casting a net into the ocean was on another.
