Description

A bright, sun‑splashed day on the seaside golf course sets the stage for an unexpected tragedy. While a sleek yellow car and a dusty gray roadster pause to watch an osprey snatch a fish from the shimmering inlet, the casual banter between Harry Bartlett and Captain Gerry Poland turns uneasy, hinting that something darker lies beneath the leisurely competition. The club’s president, a man of polished manners and hidden sharpness, seems to relish the thrill of a high‑stakes match, and his offhand comments about “making a neat kill” foreshadow the tension that will soon grip the members.

When the first shocking incident occurs, the tranquil world of the Maraposa Yacht Club is thrown into disarray. Harry, an observant and steady presence, finds himself drawn into a tangled web of suspicion, secret wagers, and whispered motives. As clues surface—from a mysterious water hazard to a cryptic note—listeners are invited to join the quiet yet relentless pursuit of truth, piecing together motives and alibis before the next swing of the club’s fortunes.
