A phenomenal read from beginning to end. Sharon Sala, bestselling author, about Edisto Jinx Murder came in with the tide . . . Edisto Island is a paradise where people escape from the mainstream world. Yet for newly sworn-in Edisto Police Chief Callie Jean Morgan, the trouble has just begun . . . When a rookie officer drowns in a freak crash in the marsh, Callies instincts tell her it wasnt an accident. As suspects and clues mount, Callies outlandish mother complicates the investigation, and Callies long-time friendship with Officer Mike Seabrook takes a turn toward something new-but is shadowed by the unsolved mystery of his wifes death. Everyones past rises to the surface, entangling with death that cuts to the bone. The roar of the surf made Callies steps soundless, her thoughts louder. Two and a half weeks on the job, and shed lost an officer. Edisto hadnt sacrificed an officer in its entire history, and the first female chief had to be the one to break the record.She sniffled. Salty breezes began to clear her sinuses, but nothing could assuage the guilt clinging to her like the muggy air Sarah lived. Francis died. And somebody had to be disappointed at that freakish turn of events, because she suspected it was meant to be the other way around. Crime was for people who lived across the big bridge on the mainland. But whether the natives liked it or not, the brake lines were cut on Edisto. She didnt want to go down that path, but one of them might be a frustrated, unfulfilled killer. C.
