Murder on the ICW — Ellen Elizabeth Hunter

DEAD SEXY

The mix of old and new continues to intrigue Wilmington, North Carolina, historic preservationist Ashley Wilkes, especially with the discovery of a decades-old murder. The skeletal remains of a Prohibition-era federal agent are found buried beneath the rubble of an old moonshine operation in a hunting lodge Ashley plans to renovate. But this mysterious bit of history mirrors something infinitely more dramatic and dangerous in Ashley's personal life: the bodies of young, healthy men who all have one thing in common...Ashley's gorgeous sister, Melanie.

Police suspect her man-magnet sister is a killer, but Ashley's innate ability to reconstruct the past tells of a motive that runs much deeper. As she pushes to find out who is killing the swinging bachelors of Wilmington, she tangles with a killer with enough dark history and blood on his hands to paint the town--and Ashley's short-lived future--red.
