When golf vlogger Morgan Reed arrives at Sunrise Ridge Golf Club to film her latest course review, she expects breathtaking mountain vistas and challenging elevation changes—not to discover the body of tech entrepreneur Bradley Harrington at the bottom of a treacherous ravine. What initially appears to be a tragic accident quickly reveals itself as murder when Morgan notices suspicious marks on the victim's neck. With her subscriber count approaching one million and her reputation for solving golf course mysteries preceding her, Morgan finds herself drawn into her fifth murder investigation despite her intentions to focus solely on creating content for "The Sweet Spot."

As Morgan navigates the politics of the prestigious mountain club, she forms an unexpected alliance with Detective Nathan Grant, who recognizes the value of her observational skills and golf knowledge. Together they uncover a sophisticated betting scheme involving manipulated course features and tampered GPS technology worth millions in potential payouts. When teenage golf prodigy Sierra Winters captures crucial evidence on her practice videos, Morgan must protect both the young golfer and herself from a killer who will stop at nothing to preserve their carefully constructed deception.

With the tournament proceeding despite the murder investigation, Morgan uses her cover as a golf analyst to question suspects while seeking the truth behind Harrington's death. Racing against time as a mountain storm threatens to wash away crucial evidence, she must read the subtle contours of human deception as skillfully as she reads the breaking slopes of Sunrise Ridge's treacherous greens. In this cozy golf mystery, Morgan proves once again that the analytical skills that make her a gifted golf instructor transfer perfectly to solving murders at America's most beautiful—and deadly—golf courses.
