You hear screams from several female busty beach goers which caused a commotion, and attention from Ms. Margaret Sleuth, who is a murder novelist, and an eye for clue’s of the plot’s. She was staying nearby at a remote motel.

Ms. Sleuth stated too the inspector that she had read in the Cape May Herald that there was some embezzlement with Mr. Daniel’s partner. Apparently, there was a struggle, and a knife drawn in attack. His partner was Dempsey Taylor his partner for many years with influence on the company’s financial spreadsheet. He had 50% stake in the company.

She also stated, “When there was a struggle, your hand hit the lapel zipper of Mr. Daniels with blood stains just before you pulled out a knife and killed Jack Daniels. Mr. Taylor stated, “You have no proof.” Margaret Sleuth said, “Oh yes, there is proof.” Your hair strand was sent too the lab, and it matches the same hair strand found on the beach. Your motive was too get the money from the company, but Jack Daniels was on too you, so you killed him. Just then, Mr. Taylor confessed too the crime, and was taken away for booking.  It was the beach of clarity with the sands of conviction that solved the case of deceive.
