Description
In a busy pub in her local town, Kate Wharton is on edge. Her good looks are attracting all sorts of male attention. But not from the man she has come here to see. He waits in a shadowy corner and laughs when she brings him her news. She wants out. Kate walks out from the pub, away from her dealer boss and a life of pushing drugs and prostitution. But she has also signed her death warrant. Whilst playing his usual round of golf, Sergeant Bert Hook finds an unpleasant surprise at the eleventh hole. The body of Kate Wharton. With her murky past, Kate’s killer will be hard to find. But it seems that it is not just her criminal connections that have a motive for murder. What can Superintendent John Lambert and Sergeant Hook make of the room-mate who never reported her missing or the junkie boyfriend who talks of a big argument, and an even bigger mistake. What of the wealthy golfer Richard Ellacott who spent hundreds in return for Kate’s company? Could their meetings have cost her her life? Back at home, Kate’s mother stands by a new lover with a history of violence. A mother who never asks how her daughter was killed... ‘Death on the Eleventh Hole’ is thrilling crime fiction featuring the popular detective duo, Lambert and Hook. It is book fifteen in the Lambert and Hook Detective series.
