In R. J. Lee' s fourth Mississippi-set Bridge to Death Mystery, it' s up to newly-married reporter and bridge player Wendy Winchester Rierson to finesse a homicide investigation where the killer holds a master hand. . . King Kohl, scion of the Kohl and Son real estate firm, has a reputation for loving three things- the ladies, closing on properties, and playing bridge. Still, when he invites Wendy, the president of the Rosalie, Mississippi, Country Club Bridge Bunch, to a small, exclusive bridge party, her investigative instincts as a reporter for the Rosalie Citizen are on the alert. In fact, King means to use the occasion to make a surprising announcement to his selected guests. But before he can lay his cards on the table, tragedy strikes. After receiving a mysterious message to hurry to King' s home, Wendy almost collides with the man' s real-estate rival, running out the front door insisting he found King dead when he arrived. Not just dead, it turns out, but murdered-crowned with one of his own award plaques. Is the rival as guilty as he looks? Was it a crime of passion by one of Kohl' s scorned lovers? With her detective husband Ross and her father Bax Winchester, the chief of police, Wendy is determined to find the offender who dropped the unguarded King. . .
