The beautiful young Simone Amstutz certainly catches orthopedic surgeon Terry Canale’s eye when she waltzes into his social club. She is in the middle of a messy divorce from her powerful husband, and Canale can’t say he’s upset that she’s suddenly become available. After a pleasant chat at the bar, the two go their separate ways. Canale goes back to his normal life, and Simone tragically ends up in the club’s swimming pool—dead.A croquet wicket and a ball found in the pool with Simone’s body point to a deadly game of croquet.When a mallet shows up in Canale’s locker at the club, their innocent chat at the bar gets a closer look by police. Canale knows that he’s a suspect, but he also knows that he isn’t the only one. Simone not only angered her attorney husband but was having an affair with a mystery lover. Between the husband, the lover, and Simone’s best friend, the enchanting Monique, there is no shortage of loved ones in Simone’s life who may have wanted her dead. To clear his name, Canale unwittingly enters a twisted game a lot more dangerous than croquet.
Physician-authors have provided us with some very popular, probing and entertaining murder mysteries- think Conan Doyle, Robin Cook and others. Dr Terry Canale's first such publication grips your attention from start to finish and is fresh and contemporary.Medical references, Canale's training, are sprinkled throughout and add flavor to the discourse. He controls the amount of blood and body damage as expected for a surgeon.Five stars for Wicked Wicket-I look forward to the next Canale adventure!
