The owners of No Egrets and their quirky local patrons are back in the long-awaited seventh book in the humorous Oak Island mystery/adventure series! Pay the Sandpiper, the book that answers the sixty-three-thousand-dollar question (almost as important as a sixty-four-thousand-dollar one)-What, exactly, does the gang do when not at the No Egrets bar? It's the Fourth of July celebration in Southport and Pinhead Paul, the affable fish cleaner at the docks, turns paramedic to help an elderly woman with a medical emergency. Glenda takes a nontraditional (and rather embarrassing) self-defense class while her husband Glenn is off to Washington DC to see his mummy. Richard, between acting parts, fills in as a guide on a Wilmington ghost tour; the Sonora sisters travel to Bald Head Island to watch the resident hunk play croquet. Daniel O'Dwyer goes home to see his mommy (not his mummy). Meanwhile, Matilda, the ancient barfly, remains in her seat at No Egrets trying different mixed drinks and writing questionable poetry and dirty limericks. But mysterious messages pull them back together at the secluded Dowitcher Manor in the middle of Green Swamp. A camouflaged executioner? The Green Swamp Golem? A mysterious voice within an orb? Mix in two honey badgers named Chaos and Calamity and... Is it time for the gang to pay the piper? The seventh book in the humorous Oak Island series that began with Ripped Tide, the 2017 McGrath House Indie Award Winner in the Humor Category. Praise for the Oak Island series: Carney's books remind me of Jimmy Buffett songs. They're filled with quirky characters, inane circumstances, some stiff drinks, and lots of good hearts that balance out the crap in the world.-Lisa Shiroff, author of Show Up Dead.
Funny, quirky, a good and easy read. ...Lance Carney is a good writer with a great, deliciously warped sense of humor! There is a lot of Hiaasen in him, and in his characters. And that's a very fun thing!-Don Rich, author of the Coastal Adventure series.
