Peruvian-Japanese pro golfer Dimas Kanashiro should have been celebrating his first major golf tournament win. Instead, the suspicious death of his boyfriend’s stepfather places Dimas’ boyfriend, Hunter Mullins, under suspicion.<br><br>Carl Mullins was a lousy stepfather and lousy human being in Dimas’ book, but Hunter always thought differently. So after beating Carl in the most important golf tournament of his life, it’s now up to Dimas to help Hunter find out how his stepfather died and, if murdered, who killed him in order to clear Hunter’s name.

Sudden Death

Ida nodded, then ducked into the sitting room and called 911. Dimas, Lenny, and Hunter stood by as Ida waited to say something to the 911 operator. Lenny whimpered, “No, no, no.”


“Nine-one-one, you need to come to One Maple Drive. I think my husband killed Carl Mullins.”


Even though Dimas kept Lenny from moving, Lenny shook his head. “It was an accident. You have to believe me, it was an accident.”


Ida hung up the phone and approached Lenny. “What happened? Where were you that morning?”


“I told Carl I wanted to meet him early in the morning. He texted me he was leaving the hotel early to drop off his clubs, and to let him know when would be a good time. I couldn’t sleep that morning, so I decided to go for a run, but this time, I dressed up. You know. I had my wig, I put on some make up, I borrowed your earrings. You were asleep. I think you came back late from partying, or maybe you were with Carl.”
