Dune to Death — Mary Daheim

LIFE'S A BEACH...AND THEN YOU DIE!

Bed-and-breakfast hostess Judith McMonigle and her policeman beau Joe Flynn have finally gotten hitched--and they're off on a sunny honeymoon to beautiful Buccaneer Beach. But an unfortunate confrontation with a dune buggy run amok puts hubby Joe in hospital traction--leaving his beleaguered blushing bride stranded in paradise with a bad case of ennui by the sea. Luckily irrepressible cousin Renie has selflessly agreed to keep Judith company. And when the landlady of their cozy, costly cottage by the shore turns up dead in their living room, the cousins suddenly have a murderous mystery to keep them afloat. Rumors of a fortune in buried pirate gold add spice to their adventure. But digging up both a treasure and a killer is dirty business--and Judith and Renie might end up digging their own graves.
