Cougars "at the beach"

     All of our winter visitors have left the beach. Most of them left too soon. The weather turned nice after they headed back north. You can tell it's spring in South Carolina, the pollen has arrived. When you go out to get in your vehicle, you soon discover the color of said vehicle has changed. It is now yellow. You can no longer leave your windows open even though the temperature is in the mid 70's. I played golf yesterday and when I finished my brown shoes had changed colors, they are now yellow. At least it started late this year, so hopefully it will go away quickly. A good thunderstorm will wash away all of the pollen for awhile and a water hose daily restores the color of your car.
     Real estate sales are picking up along the Grand Strand but prices are still rather low for a beach destination. If you're teetering on the edge of should I purchase now or wait, now is probably the right time.  Come on down and visit, you may decide to stay. And by the way, we're dealin!
   
     My second book Cougars at the Beach is finally finished. Now the hard part begins, editing and re-writes. Here is a summary of the book and maybe my back cover:

     Cougars at the Beach is Steve McMillen's second installment in the Mickke D, Grand Strand murder mystery series. His first book Murder on the Front Nine, got rave reviews on Amazon, Kindle and from the public in general.The setting for the second book is the same as the first, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
     Mickke D, an ex-Green Beret, real estate agent and part time private investigator accepts the job of trying to locate a missing person for a friend of his. Now, how much trouble can a missing persons case be for a PI? He soon discovers he is hunting for a serial killer and that the serial killer is hunting him as well. This is a fast paced, drama-filled, page turner, which will keep you on the edge of your chair all the way through. As in the first book, the author includes a lot of local history along with local settings, including the new Boardwalk, the Sky Wheel, golf courses, resorts, restaurants, wine festivals, and a boat chase on the Waterway, all of which anyone who lives in Myrtle Beach or has ever visited Myrtle Beach will recognize. Just as in the first book, the reader will be able to say, "Been there, done that."
     Steve brings back several characters from the first book and adds a few new ones. Mickke D has a significant other this time around, however he is not sure if she is a good guy or a bad guy. He has never had much luck with women and that trend seems to continue, however I'll let you, the reader, be the judge of that.
     If you're looking for a good beach read, Cougars at the Beach, is for you.

     See ya, Steve & Bev
