A Quirky and Entertaining Whodunit Set Against the Backdrop of The Grand Strand

Nov. 17, 2009 - PRLog -- Peri Mason is an attractive widow, ready to escape the pressures of her investigative reporting job and head for the beach to take in some much needed R&R and R; rest, relaxation and romance.

Peri and her two friends head to North Myrtle Beach to take part in a time-honored tradition, a dance craze that Carolinians created back in the 1960s.   Shagging on the strand was the sensual dance of the South and a group of people known as The Society of Stranders (SOS) pay homage to the practice twice a year.  Although the ladies had never participated in the event, they intended to rectify that shortcoming upon arrival.

Fat Harold’s is their first stop.  Known as one the hottest dance clubs on the strand, Peri thinks it’s the perfect way to begin their weekend.  Precarious is what it turns out to be when she encounters a renegade cat, a rude redheaded woman, and two half-naked men in a nearby alley, one very dead and the other very ill.  What a way to start a weekend!

Later that night, another dead body (yet another redhead) is discovered.  Who is responsible and what does the cat have to do with the bodies that keep piling up?  

Despite her plans for rest, Peri puts on her investigative reporter hat when the finger of suspicion is pointed at her.  Can she figure out whodunit, prove her own innocence, and most importantly, will she ever get to shag?   

Arntsen has created a strong, sexy, and likeable female sleuth with razor-sharp wit.  With a fast-paced plotline and a story that hooks the reader from page one, fans will eagerly anticipate the next Peri Mason adventure.
