Final Note

Handsome, young country rock star, Buford Doakes, is found drowned in the hot tub of his hotel suite after a late-night party. With the deck in disarray and Doakes’ famous diamond studded Stetson still intact, foul play is obvious but his image as a wholesome Texas boy is shattered.

Amateur sleuth Liz Rooney again matches wits with the man in her life, NYPD Detective Ike Eichle. Together, they unravel the sordid details of Buford’s last night of parties and hot tubbing. Who wants Buford dead, and why? A jealous secret bride? A disgruntled groupie? While delivering into the long list of potential suspects and motives, Liz comes up with some questions, and a few vital clues, that help crack the case. At the same time Ike comes up with a question that seals their relationship.
