Meet Ms. Mia, the modern-day Miss Marple with a humorous twist, solving murder mysteries in glamorous resorts. A luxurious private island paradise, with palm trees and white sand beaches, sets the stage for this classic cozy mystery. Ms Mia, a vibrant woman of a certain age, savors all life's experiences—and if someone's unhappy, she cheerfully rearranges their life to her satisfaction. At Spinel Resorts, a luxurious chain of boutique hotels founded by her late husband, sinister secrets hide in exotic paradises. Arriving at the Grand Island Hotel, Ms. Mia immediately spots trouble. A second honeymoon bitterly unraveling, a woman fleeing grief, a writer wallowing in extremely public scenes, and a wife who seems, ahem, very intimate with her tennis pro. When murder strikes her luxury resort, Ms. Mia discovers her talent as an amateur sleuth, diving into the investigation with charm, wit—and a glass of champagne. No one gets away with murder at her island paradise! This cozy whodunit is perfect for fans of Donna Andrews' Meg Langslow, Joanne Fluke's Hannah Swenson and Carolyn Hart's Annie Laurance, blending witty sleuthing with resort glamour.
