This is the first time I've delved into a Bay Tanner Mystery by Kathryn Wall. In fact, I can't recall reading a Wall mystery before, and I can't understand how I've missed her. I enjoy her characters, her settings and her writing style, so I'm headed for the shelves to locate her previous titles.
The setting is Hilton Head and Beaufort, South Carolina, where Bay Tanner is a sometime private investigator. She finds herself trying to solve the mysteries of a runaway wife and the origins of a dead newborn. Solving these two mysteries takes the readers into the secretive black community of Sanctuary Hill, into the languid life of an Old South plantation, into the tourist community of modern day Hilton Head, and into the coastal boating community along the shores of northern Florida and Georgia.
This series is well worth going back to catch up on the life and times of Bay Tanner.
