Juan Mendez Scott's Pool Party. Juan Mendez Scott's Mystery Magazine, #13

It was supposed to be a summer to remember-but not like this. When a teenager is found dead in a Fort Washington swimming pool, amateur sleuth Tammy Reed senses something deeper lurking beneath the surface. But it's Ace-enigmatic, sharp-tongued, and reckless-who draws her into a tangled web of secrets, lies, and buried trauma. The more Tammy uncovers, the more dangerous Ace becomes. Is he a witness, a victim.
or something far worse?Pool Party is a chilling dive into obsession, guilt, and the dark games teenagers play when no one's watching.
