About the Book

The Alhambra Golf Course is located in the heart of a genteel South Florida city. Resembling a traditional English village green, it is surrounded by the manicured lawns of magnificent houses and is the pride of the citizens of Greenhaven.But the tranquility of this urban oasis is threatened by a brash and vulgar, billionaire developer with bad hair who wishes the convert Greenhaven's precious jewel into a towering hotel multiplex onto which he can affix his name in gold letters.At the same time a well-respected local historian has been unearthing disquieting information concerning the founding of the city and the sordid origins of some of its more prominent families: bank robberies, bar-room brawls and brothels are just a part of it.And then there's the dead body, fifty yards short of the eighth green.
About the Author: Patrick Alexander-Lane is an English born writer who has raised his children in France, Italy, Switzerland, Ireland and California before settling in Miami, Florida. He has worked on four continents as, - an international financial consultant, a corporate executive and as a university teacher and administrator. These wildly different experiences inspired a series of short stories published in the UK by Thistle Publishing. Patrick's second book, 'Marcel Proust's Search for Lost Time' was published by Vintage Books in New York in 2009 and was followed by two other books on Proust: 'Marcel Proust on Twitter' and 'The Illustrated Proust' in collaboration with the Californian painter, David Richardson. Patrick is also engaged in re-writing all seven volumes of "In Search of Lost Time" on Twitter at 'ProustTweet'. 'The Booklover's Guide to Wine', based on the successful 6-week program that Patrick has been teaching for the past several years, was released by Mango Publishing in May 2017 and featured at the 2017 Miami Book Fair. 'The Cuban Factor' and 'Death on the Eighth' are the first two volumes of a trilogy set in the fictional South Florida City of Greenhaven and involve (among other things) dead bodies, vicious local politics, the Bay of Pigs and the history of Miami. Patrick's first novel 'The Nigerian Letter', was released in 2015. Apart from being an exciting page-turner of a thriller - it is also remarkable for having almost no references to Marcel Proust! When not visiting his grandchildren in France and Charleston S.C., Patrick and his wife Jude live in Miami where he teaches classes in Wine Appreciation, History and Marcel Proust.
