Intrigue in Coronado

Book excerpt: A still body on the beach. A beautiful gold-and-coral rose clutched in one hand. A scream slicing through the air. Mix these in with a handsome law professor, a student bent on revenge, a glamorous Hollywood starlet, and a secretive ebony-haired artist. Forced into the midst of this scenario, the PICS--Partners in Crime Solving--again join forces to solve horrendous crimes on the upscale island of Coronado, California, off the coast of San Diego. Cami Carrington, wealthy widow and resident of the island, and her friend, Kate Elfmon, from Boston, face myriad personal challenges along the way. How will Cami deal with the grief of her husband's recent murder? Will Kate make peace with the Boston computer software specialist who wants to marry her? Or will she turn to the charming law professor? Again the longtime friends employ charm, intellect, courage, and faith as they separate true clues from false information to solve another murder. Peggy is a Bible teacher, church librarian, international ladies' and youth events speaker, and award-winning member of the San Diego Christian Writers' Guild.
