Publisher's Synopsis
The Golf Course Mystery by Chester K. Steele, 1919. This book was a mystery in the early 1900s era. Mr Carwell takes his winning shot in a golf tournament, only to keel over and die. At first it is thought that it must have been a stroke, but when poison is found in his blood stream and there is talk of financial problems, then it looks like a case of suicide. Viola Carwell, the daughter of the deceased however doesn't believe that verdict, and thus calls on the help of her late father's friend, Colonel Ashley. Chester K. Steele was a house pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate for a series of mystery books. These were aimed at an older audience than most of the other syndicate books. The first title, The Mansion of Mystery, was written by Edward Stratemeyer and the rest were ghostwritten.
