Double Hit by Alec Wright

 At the local golf club, where he takes a job, longstanding grudges surface, culminating in the death of a senior member. The police do not suspect foul play, but Paul has other ideas, and begins to make enquiries. He finds many suspects with motives for murder. Events now take a more sinister turn as Paul uncovers a fake antiques racket and is swept into a world of intrigue and danger – with his own life at risk. A murdered body is found near the golf course, shocking club members again. The Paul receives a chilling threat: get out of the village within three days… or be killed.

Reviews for the hardback edition of Double Hit:

Golf club politics are dealt with in an entertaining and plausible fashion. The story moves along at a decent pace to a denouement you probably didn't see coming. It's a pretty good tale. If you're a golfer as well that will add to the enjoyment.
