Product Description If there is one thing the young golfer Lee Ofsted doesn't have on her mind, it is her chances of being selected for the Stewart Cup Tournament--the competition that pits the greatest American golfers, male and female, against their British counterparts. Lee is on no one's list of the 'greatest American golfers,' so it comes as a surprise when the great Roger Finley, captain of the American team, invites her to play. She's on the team, but exhilaration soon gives way to anxiety. Can she deliver? However, as play begins, Lee's worries about making a fool of herself take second place when Roger's devoted long-time caddie is found murdered, and Lee herself is the victim of an attempt on her life. It takes all of Lee's nerve and natural talent to see the competition through, to keep out of the gunsights of a resourceful killer, and, in the end, to make sense of a bizarre and paradoxical mystery.

Ripoff August 7, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think that twelve dollars for the shipping and handling for one book is excessive. Book was an excellant price but the shipping and handling charges were a ripoff. I won't use this business again.
The latest and best of the Lee Ofsted series December 11, 2005 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have greatly enjoyed Aaron and Charlotte Elkins series of golf mysteries featuring Lee Ofsted, but this one was the best so far. The characterizations have deepened and become even more believable. The plot displayed heightened complexity and, as always, the reader is drawn into an interesting and emotionally satisfying story. With so many mystery writers succumbing to the formulaic approach, it is a great pleasure to read the work of a storyteller. Not that it reaches "great novel" status - it wasn't intended to! But it does offer an engaging and enjoyable mystery for the intelligent reader.
As for the monomaniac reviewer who dinged the book for a one-stroke golf "error," may your birdies be gone forever! Get a life. For the rest of us who care more about the overall quality of a book than in self-important nit-picking, this book delivers a hole in one!
