Book excerpt: Madame Z and Commissioner Sarah Curtis want Worcester County to buy land owned by a little old lady in a nursing home, for a wildlife sanctuary and to protect the Brown Pelicans. The farm is mostly wetlands with the Northern-most Brown Pelican Rookery located right on the water front overlooking Chincoteague Bay and Assateague Island. A developer has his eye on this same property on Maryland’s Eastern Shore for future homes and a golf course. The little old lady in the nursing home gives her nephew power of attorney, and shortly thereafter suffers a stroke rendering her helpless to wheel and deal. Her nephew is murdered leaving a young, good-looking wife as sole heir to her property. This little beauty is promptly besieged with offers of money, marriage, BMW’s and condos with little thought of her husband’s killer. Sheriff Abel, his wife, and Madame Z have their work cut out for them discovering who the killer is in time to save the farm from the bulldozer. Get set for more rollicking laughs as the Eastern Shore of Maryland is once again besieged by murder and mayhem. Will Worcester County’s best be able to come to the rescue once again?
