When Summer Walsh, an ex-detective from Nashville, leaves the police force, she sees herself vacationing on the beach, teeing off at the golf course of her uncle’s country club community, and knocking a few balls around on the tennis court. But that’s not the way things work out when her uncle gets framed for the murder of an aging femme fatale who was found strangled on the tennis court.

Summer is called to service in the small coastal community called Gulfside, where the sun shines year-round and retirees play like children. The murder of Bonita Landry throws the whole town into a tailspin, creating suspicion in everyone.

She has to endure listening to remarks about her uncle’s love life, being chased on the causeway, and dealing with hostile witnesses. But Summer doesn’t give up until she finds out who murderer is.

Deborah Tisdale lives in the Tampa Bay area with her husband, two children, a dog, and two cats. She enjoys reading everything she can get her hands on, especially quirky mysteries, and walking while listening to books on tape.

Corpse on the Court is her first mystery in the Summer Walsh Mystery Series and her fourth novel with AVALON.
