Horse Thriller

An unseen enemy seeks Tanner's death.

An accidental drug overdose is ruled the cause of the death of the daughter of Chris Landrum’s neighbor. The young woman’s father, a retired police detective, had accused Chris of murder days after he’d arrived on Folly Beach a decade ago, and they’ve butted heads frequently since then.

Is this the opportunity he's been waiting for, or will Coley blow his chance with the arrival of Starbuck's leggy, blonde daughter Lea—a woman who's as skilled at seducing men as she is at blowing them away?
