Sand Sharks

A small-town judge finds drama, danger, and murder at an oceanside work conference in this fifteenth entry in the award-winning mystery series.

“Maron’s homespun evocation of people and place is typically pitch-perfect, her use of the judicial milieu skillful—and her engaging heroine as welcome a companion as you could wish for under a beach umbrella.” —Publishers Weekly

When Judge Deborah Knott travels to Wrightsville Beach for a summer conference for North Carolina District Court Judges, she stumbles upon the body of one of her colleagues. Meanwhile, Deborah's husband, Sheriff’s Deputy Dwight Bryant, is in Virginia with his son, tying up loose ends left by the death of his first wife.

When another judge is found murdered at the conference, it soon becomes evident that Deborah may be the killer’s next target. Her relaxing trip to the seaside soon transforms into a harrowing experience, and she must summon all her strength and investigative expertise to track down the culprit before she becomes the next victim.

“Maron is a pro . . . and Sand Sharks is up to her usual standard. As Deborah breezily narrates the details, the author spins out a scenario with plenty of intriguing characters (and possible suspects) and enough false leads to keep readers guessing.” —Wilmington Star-News
