"Insurance," he said, hefting the Winchester to a port-arms position. The feel of cold steel and the smell of well-oiled wood went a long way in eliminating any fear he felt. The tree of them moved into a dawn filled with mist and uncertainty."What happened to Denise could happen to me," said Carlton as he nervously fiddled with is jackets cuff while looking expectantly at her. "How is that for being honest?" What he found in Anna's dark, European eyes was compassion.

When the film Clue came out in 1985, audiences were baffled. A movie based on a board game, with three different endings, and you had to pick which one to go see? Bad reviews compounded the problem, and instead of choosing one ending, most people stayed away entirely. Clue, outgrossed at the box office by films that had been released months earlier, quickly faded away. When it unceremoniously premiered on Showtime a year after its theatrical debut, there was no sign it was destined for anything other than obscurity, another flop bound to be forgotten. Instead, Gen Xers and millennials, raised on pop culture and cable TV in an era long before the streaming wars, discovered this zany farce about a group of six strangers locked in a remote house with a killer. The movie appealed to kids. The creepy mansion and eerie music contrasted with slapstick gags and double entendres, deflating the tension. Today, almost forty years later, Clue is the epitome of a cult classic, with midnight screenings, script readings for charity, cosplaying fans, and a stage play. "What Do You Mean, Murder?" dives deep into the making of Clue and walks fans through the movie they know and love.

Crescent Beach has something for everyone who enjoys sitting by a fire on a cold evening, or outside on a porch and reading a good murder mystery. There is also the potential for a second book in the series. It is a book about perceptions, about police officers, newspaper men and women and the Russian mob from Chicago. It begins with a murder in Chicago and then takes off on a journey that covers the small town of Crescent Beach, Florida, sailing in Bahamian waters and Savannah, Georgia. Who comes out of this tale alive is anyone's guess.
