The Sand Dollar Club: A Professor Rap Mystery (Professor Rap Mysteries)

A slightly supernatural, but definitely off-the-wall mystery rich in Florida history and culture. For over a hundred years, three people have disappeared every nine years in June around a small island in Tampa Bay. To date, no one has noticed. When a local fisherman disappears from that same small island in June, the only clue is a small medieval statue at the bottom of an old, broken treasure chest. The beautiful, bejeweled statue wears the face of a woman, but has the body of a man. The next morning, marine scientist Mary Ryan is skating the old Gandy Bridge on her roller blades when she is attacked by a shadowy figure, both half woman and half man. Detective James Allen's hands are tied when Mary Ryan seeks his help, so he enlists the aid of Professor of Anthropology Dennis RAP Rapski. Rap is brought in to identify the statue and to help with the investigation. Someone or something is playing deadly games with the people of St. Petersburg. Detective Allen decides to play matchmaker, in this case sending the good professor to help Ryan. Professor Rap and Ryan embark upon a high stakes game of life and death, where only they can save themselves.
