Wake Up, Darlin' Corey — M.K. Wren

AS THE RICH GOT RICHER, THE REST GOT MURDERED....

A passionate environmentalist. Corey Benbow was heading hone after an angry encounter with her wealthy in-laws when her car went over a bluff into Sitka Bay. The Benbows were about to double-cross an environmental group and sell their valuable property to a resort developer.

Bookstore owner and private investigator Conan Flagg is certain that Corey's death was no accident. But his only hope of proving it is a thirty-six-year-old diary that has vanished-possibly into the Pacific Ocean, but more likely into the hands of someone connected with the pending multimillion dollar land sale.

Chipping away at the stone wall of Benbow family solidarity, Conan finally arrives at the ugly truth of 'Corey's death. But only by a bold sleight of hand can he render justice in a haunting family affair of land grabbing, greed and violence.
