The high tide club
(Large Print)

When ninety-nine-year-old heiress Josephine Bettendorf Warrick summons attorney Brooke Trappnell to her 20,000-acre barrier island home, Brooke is puzzled. Everybody in the South has heard about the eccentric millionaire mistress of Talisa Island, but Brooke has never actually met her. In a cryptic phone call, Josephine says she wants to discuss an important legal matter -- but why enlist Brooke and not the prestigious Atlanta law firm she has used for years? Brooke travels to Shellhaven and meets the cagey Josephine, whose home is a crumbling pink mansion at the edge of the turquoise sea. Over the course of a few meetings, Josephine spins a tale of old friendships, dark secrets, betrayal, and a long-unsolved murder. To fulfill the dying woman's wishes, Brooke must find and bring together the woman's oldest friends and their descendants for a farewell, and to put right the mistakes of the past. But in doing so, Brooke unleashes the makings of a scandal that could make someone rich beyond their wildest dreams ... or cause them to be in the crosshairs of a murderer.
