 LOW PRESSURE by Sandra Brown

Sandra Brown writes the perfect vacation book--fast paced, easy reading, with a bit of romance.  Decent plot and a few twists and turns keep you reading til you've turned the last page.

 Bellamy Lyston was 12 years old when her older sister Susan, a salacious teenager, was murdered during a company picnic in the midst of a tornado. Eighteen years later, Bellamy has written a sensational, bestselling novel based on Susan’s murder, as a means of ridding herself of the ghosts from the past. She published the book as fiction, under a pseudonym to protect her family from the publicity as the murder had been so sensational. But a sleazy reporter for a tabloid newspaper discovers the book is based on fact and Bellamy’s identity is exposed along with the family scandal. The person convicted of the crime is now dead, murdered in prison.  And Bellamy becomes the target of someone vested in either keeping the truth about the real murderer a secret, or out for revenge.  Bellamy joins forces with Dent Carter, Susan’s boyfriend and a cleared suspect in the murder case, and the sparks between them fly, while they work together to find out what happened that fateful day.
