Murder in paradise!

Charlie Kingsley escapes Wisconsin’s winter chill for sunny Cabo, Mexico, hoping for sandy beaches and endless margaritas. But her vacation takes a deadly turn when she stumbles upon a body on the beach, and worse, becomes the prime suspect!

Now Charlie must swap her flip-flops for detective shoes to clear her name and catch the killer before her getaway turns into a stay behind bars.

Perfect for readers of tropical cozy mysteries, beach vacation whodunits, and amateur sleuth adventures.

Meet Charlie. Also known as “Aunt Charlie” from the award-winning Secrets of Redemption series. She's back, making teas and solving cases in this funny, twisty, cozy mystery series set in the 1990s in Redemption, Wisconsin. If you love a no-nonsense amateur sleuth, quirky characters, pets, small town deadly secrets and a touch of romance, the Charlie Kingsley Mysteries may be your next favorite cozy mystery series.
