User Reviews

Territorial Surfers

David Paetkau had two passions in life. The on line software company he created and surfing. His had to be the only company that stopped work each day so that he could ride a wave or two.

Only here in Washington State in Jennifer Shannon's home town there's a beach that the surfer dudes consider their private preserve, no outsiders. Paetkau's tires are slashed one time, he gets assaulted a second time. Third time he dies.

Lori Loughlin the antiquing expert and haunter of garage sales is intrigued by a surfboard Paetkau donated to her before his demise. She's even more intrigue by the homicide, especially after police attention shifts to older brother Ben Cotton who was something of a ne'er do well and given charity employment by his successful younger brother.

Let's say that the police and Loughlin were misreading certain clues, but Loughlin does get it right in the end and the murder is solved.

Not the best of the Garage Sale mystery group, but entertaining enough.
