By Carter Brown

Her drive landed this babe way off course....

with a guy who wanted her to tee up for murder...

Bert Butler saw the body the first time, then he saw her again, the third time she was gone, …and the fourth time? The fourth time she fell out of his wardrobe. The headlines read "Juicy Murder" An ordinary bullet in the head. The picture in the paper was none other than Mr Butler with the caption "Killer At Large" Butler was employed by the soft drink company "Juicy" to promote a golf tournament, clean and wholesome fun until the blonde teed off and her caddy went off to find the ball in the rough. Boy did he scream, he found a corpse on links a nice neat hole in his forehead.
