About this ebook

When the wicked witch of the competitive Highland Dance world is found down on the Scottish Games athletic field, her skull crushed by a caber, it seems clear that someone wanted her very dead.


Book Four in the Loch Lonach Mystery Series

ICU nurse Ginny Forbes is not inclined to divert time from the preparations for her wedding to investigate yet another suspicious death. But when the police decide her Maid of Honor is the prime suspect, Ginny vows to do whatever is necessary to clear her friend's name, including a flying trip to New Orleans to collect evidence.

Caught in the act, Ginny is captured, hauled off to an alligator farm, and incorporated into an ancient and thoroughly illegal voodoo ceremony. With no way to call for help and no one who knows where she is, it's a race against time with Ginny's wedding—and her life—hanging in the balance.

A riveting mystery amply supplied with red herrings and spiced with surprises. If you like Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, and Ellis Peters, you’ll feel right at home in this highly entertaining fourth book by Maggie Foster.

"I absolutely love the setting for this piece! You have nailed it." Judge, Writers League of Texas, Manuscript Contest

Final Fling is the fourth in a series, but don't let that stop you. The plotting and characterizations are masterful. The pace is perfect. I never saw the end coming! One thing I can promise, if you haven't read the others, you'll want to after reading this one!” Amazon Reader, Kim S.

“For anybody who loves a good mystery, I HIGHLY recommend this series and this book in particular! The concept in this book is my favorite so far! BONUS FUN-There is an element in here that seems completely implausible but is based on a true story.” Mary H., Librarian

“Rich in detail, satisfyingly rife with misdirection, and offers a complete secondary story line for the red herrings. There is no problem understanding why each of the not-guilty might wish to put the victim out of everyone’s misery. A new twist is that, in this novel, all of the active red herrings (and there is one who qualifies as passive) think they might actually be guilty. My advice? Read Final Fling, then write Maggie and demand she get busy on the next book!” Amazon Reader, Clio B.
