Product Description Cassie Burdette is going through a rough patch on the LPGA Tour, so snagging the touring pro job at a posh Connecticut country club is a stroke of good luck. But many members feel that efforts to turn this fancy male domain into a Jack-and-Jill, environmentally friendly club are strictly out of bounds. Then Cassie stumbles upon the body of an unpopular member who has been beaned . . .

Cassie's on the case again August 14, 2006 The third in a series (my appologies I previously wrote that A Buried Lie was the third). The characters and development are becoming a little formulaic. The country club setting and characters weren't as interesting. Although I could see the motive for murder coming the villian wasn't revealed until the end. It took an extra chapter to explain the motive behind it all. Still love Cassie and can't wait for the next installment.
A birdie for Roberta! June 28, 2006 Being a hack golfer I loved the premise under which Roberta has developed Cassie the main character under real world terms.
Another Winner From Roberta Isleib October 20, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In Roberta Isleib's latest Cassie Burdette installment, Putt To Death, the vibrant, outspoken professional golfer takes it upon herself to solve a series of murders that take place at Stony Creek Country Club, the conservative, posh country club where she has recently accepted a position as "touring pro." Cassie literally stumbles across the first victim and then, when the victim's blood is found on one of her golf clubs, she feels compelled to investigate. Along with Cassie's amateur sleuthing activities, which eventually put her in considerable personal danger, Ms. Isleib continues to develop Cassie's romance with fellow professional golfer Mike Callahan and to amplify our understanding of the complexities of Cassie's character through her interactions with friends, family, and a psychologist she consults. Putt to Death is a fast-paced, compelling read with an appealing heroine who continues to engage our hearts, as well as our minds.
Putt to Death October 19, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the third in a perfect series for those who golf by day and read at night. The character development continues to grow stronger, the insights into the world of professional golf are interesting and a who-dunnit to boot. Roberta Isleib cannot write fast enough to keep pace with the demand for the next installment.
witty and suspenseful June 7, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
PUTT TO DEATH finds pro golfer Cassie Burdette on hiatus from the tour, working as a pro at a snooty Connecticut country club. When two outspoken club members turn up dead on Cassie's first week on the job, she has to work overtime to figure out who's zooming who, who can be trusted and who might be out to implicate her in the murders. Cassie's problems with her neglectful father, her almost-boyfriend, Mike, and her new shrink are just as suspenseful as the mystery. In fact, the personal and the mystery plots dovetail neatly to provide a clever and satisfying ending. As always, the writing in this series is witty and full of pithy observations of human, and golfer, behavioir.
