The Corpse Wore Cashmere

Book excerpt: Susan's vision comes true when Palmetto's flotilla recovers the remains of a missing resident. A witness and the victim's prior employment point to the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where the Annual Pirates' Festival is in full swing. When a swank Biloxi casino contacts the Purple Pickle to supply costumes, Susan and A. K. jump at the chance. But even the best costumes can't hide the real evil, and before the weekend is over, no one is safe. A. K. wants only a weekend of fun. Susan, on the other hand, can't wait to question employees and maybe discover a motive for the murder. Spurred on by her visions, she ignores warning signs and soon finds herself in the clutches of a killer. When the local authorities attempt to execute an arrest warrant, the investigation turns upside down, and suspects become victims.
