Description

Randy and Steve have finally tied the knot and head south to Puerto Vallarta to celebrate. Unfortunately, Randy’s romantic beach walks and candlelit dinners are put on hold when a fellow traveller is found dead. Instead, Randy and Steve have to find meaning in the murder to catch the culprit. If they don’t, the honeymoon just might be over.

Editorial Reviews

A smart, sophisticated, and engrossing murder mystery told with lavish details and an appealing dry wit. Randy Craig is the character you want to invite to your next dinner party. Her amateur sleuthing is peppered with smart cultural references and her humour keeps the narration flowing. She’ll bring Steve, of course.

The honeymooning couple’s banter is both warm and mature, providing a sharp contrast to the murders and the dangerously clever climax.

 

—Carmen Amato, author of the Detective Emilia Cruz series
