Under the cover of murder / by Elliott, Lauren.;
It promises to be Greyborne Harbor's wedding of the year. The impending nuptials of Serena Chandler and Zach Ludlow will take place aboard his family's luxurious super-yacht, currently moored in the harbor and the talk of the town. But on the day of the wedding, a man's body washes up on the beach with no ID, only a torn page from a book in his pocket. As owner of Beyond the Page Books and Curios, bibliophile Addie is called in to identify the book, but she cannot. The morning following the extravagant ceremony, a second body washes ashore and Addie has a sinking feeling that the two deaths are connected. While the guests are held on the yacht as the police investigate, at least Addie can peruse Zach's father's rare books library on board. A copy of Agatha Christie's first Hercule Poirot novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, provides a clue that the killer may still be on the ship--but narrowing down the suspects without becoming the next victim may prove a truly Herculean task...

Rival's break / by Neggers, Carla,author.;
"A deadly poisoning, a stolen painting and a criminal mastermind challenge the skills of FBI agents Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan as never before in their latest high-stakes case. Emma Sharpe is recovering from a shattering loss while her husband, Colin Donovan, is deep into his latest undercover mission. So they're grateful to enjoy a peaceful autumn weekend together on the southern Maine coast to celebrate Colin's brother Andy's wedding. But the peace is short-lived when Kevin Donovan, a marine patrol officer, receives a call to check on suspected food poisoning at a party aboard a yacht. Colin decides to tag along. He is surprised to recognize one of the victims as an undercover British intelligence officer, and it quickly becomes evident they're dealing with something very sinister. At the same time a valuable painting by Irish artist Aoife O'Byrne--a friend of Emma and Colin's--is missing from the yacht, and the connections make the investigation international and extremely personal. Emma and Colin discover they are up against a deadly foe who plans to strike again. With the help of HIT, their small, elite Boston-based FBI team, they must foil an attack that will have devastating effects. It's a case that will alter their lives beyond anything they've ever imagined"--

An honest man / by Koryta, Michael,author.;
""I am a killer, and I am an honest man." Israel Pike thinks to himself as he sits in police custody. It's been several days since he discovered the bodies of seven men, butchered aboard their yacht. Israel had climbed aboard to investigate when he saw the boat floating listlessly, but his interference at the scene and connection to one of the deceased has made him the FBI's prime suspect. And elsewhere on the island is 12-year-old Lyman Rankin, who, when hiding in a nearby shack from his raging, alcoholic father, discovers he is not alone. A woman, bloody and dripping wet with a hatchet in hand greets him in the doorway: "Make a sound and I'll kill you" she threatens"--

A honey for the beekeeper / by Crespo, Nina,1967-author.;

But when Brooke and her estranged sister inherit the farm, she's stuck there until her sister can buy her out.

Seeking refuge from fame and a painful past, Gable finds Brooke is just the balm he needs. As their budding attraction blossoms, the music industry he's trying to avoid threatens to reclaim Gable. And Brooke would rather head out of town than feel the sting of that loss. As they're pulled down separate paths, will Brooke and Gable discover that, sometimes, home is a place found in each other?"--

Private investigations / by Jardine, Quintin,author.;
Former Chief Constable Bob Skinner has uncovered his fair share of crime scenes over his 30-year career. But few have affected him quite as much as the horrifying sight he finds stowed in the back of a stolen car that collides with his own on the outskirts of Edinburgh. As his former colleagues investigate the mystery, Skinner is left to take on the unusual challenge of tracing a million-pound yacht, vanished from its mooring. From the outside, the two events couldn't seem less connected. And yet, as the body count rises, a link surfaces that could provide the key to both. And as discord spreads within the newly unified Police Scotland, it will soon become clear whether Skinner is on the side of the angels - or working against them.

LIV and let die : the inside story of the war between PGA Tour and LIV Golf / by Shipnuck, Alan,1973-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In LIV and Let Die, Shipnuck delivers the inside story in real time, with fly-on-the-wall reporting from the yachts where LIV was hatched and within the corridors of power as the PGA Tour flailed to fend off the threat. Shipnuck has traveled seamlessly between both tours-having countless conversations with players, caddies, CEOs, agents, financiers, lawyers, flaks, fans, and Instagramming wives-to deliver a no-holds-barred account of the most chaotic moment in golf history. Anyone who has a stake in professional golf lined up for an interview with Shipnuck-because they knew everyone else was talking to him, too. The disruption to an old, proud sport was largely conducted in the shadows, but LIV and Let Die delivers numerous revelations about what really happened, and why."--
