The detectives set out to investigate the mysterious death, which took place in a lavish mansion. They are met by the house’s butler, Mr. Benson, a man with an English accent and an unwavering belief that the elderly homeowner was murdered.

As the detectives dig deeper into the family’s secrets and the butler’s convictions, they unravel a complex web of deceit, treachery, and greed. “The Country Club Murders” takes readers on a rollercoaster ride of suspense as they follow Hawk, Ricci, and Holliday through a maze of intrigue, deception, and dark emotions.
