The End of His Journey (3) (The Leslie Elliott mysteries) by Hanafee, Susan. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781667820422.

The End of His Journey The idyllic island where would-be-novelist Leslie Elliott lives in southwest Florida is shaken by the return of drug dealer, Jamie Thompson, who escaped the law and has vowed revenge on Leslie for exposing his cohorts and their thriving cocaine business. When his presence leads to two deaths, Leslie sets out to uncover the truth, recruiting her newspaper buddy, Wes Avery, and an unlikely ally to help. While assisting Leslie, Wes hears about the story of a young island resident who was said to have committed suicide at a party 20 years ago. His tortured father and old-timers in the community are still seeking answers to what happened that night. As Wes and Leslie help the father on his journey, they discover surprising and dangerous connections between the current tragedies and the two-decades-old shooting. The End of His Journey is the sequel to Scavenger Tides, which takes place shortly after Leslie Elliott quits her public relations job in the Midwest to move to Florida. Her dream of leaving the corporate world to become a mystery writer threatens to become a nightmare as buzzards lead her to a headless dog carcass and a human body rolls in with the summer storms and then disappears, only to re-appear and vanish again. Both mysteries, along with Leslies Voice, the first in the series, are available where books are sold online
