Jolie Gentil Cozy Mystery Series
|
14th Jersey Shore Cozy Mystery
More than most faculty, the band director at Ocean Alley High School doesn't want students to have phones in class, and he especially doesn't want the band distracted by them when they march on the football field. Imagine his reaction when one goes off during the National Anthem. When no student will apologize, Mr. O'Halloran cancels band practice the week before a big competition. Talk about a good way to tick off students, parents, and band boosters. With Scoobie's brother Terry as one of the bass drummers, Jolie and family have strong opinions. But someone is a lot more upset. At least the knitting needle in the band director's neck seems to say so.
If Jolie hadn't been the first to find the man, she would be less insistent to know what happened to him. What really gets the Ocean Alley crew invested is the last two people the school security system shows talking to Mr. O'Halloran – Scoobie's brother and his best friend. Rumors abound.
With appraising houses, running the food pantry, and keeping four-year old twins in line, Jolie has her hands full. Scoobie's best friend George is always willing to butt into a mystery. Sometimes that's helpful. Other times, not so much.
