Murder On The Chesapeake

Description for MURDER ON THE CHESAPEAKE by David Osborn:

Meet Margaret Barlow--a feisty, fifty-something amateur sleuth with a passion for hot-air ballooning, hang-gliding, and handsome younger men. Nothing gets past her -- not even murder...

Brides Hall, the exclusive all-girls boarding school on Maryland's Eastern Shore, is something of a tradition-in Margaret Barlow's family; and now her granddaughter counts herself among its young elite. But beneath the pomp and privilege lies a deadly secret that erupts in tragedy when a scholarship student is found hanging from the chapel bell tower.

Summoned to her old alma mater by homicide cop Michael, Dominic, Margaret is stunned to find how little things have changed. But it isn't until she uncovers several buried scandals that she realizes how lethal a little knowledge can be.

Then a second body surfaces, and that's when Margaret discovers just how far someone will go to protect a shocking conspiracy. Now the redoubtable Ms. Barlow must match wits with a malicious murderer by setting a trap ... using herself as bait.
