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!

A fun new series—Ms. Mia is a fun character—A very quick and sharp Miss Marple. The characters are well-developed and the plot is cleverly complex. This is a great introduction to what promises to be a fun and interesting series.

A wonderful, well written mystery that kept me guessing through all the twists and turns. Great for summer reading or any time to escape to a beautifully described setting. I can’t wait to read more by this author.
Great story telling! Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2025 Just finished Murder at the Grand Island Hotel...read from cover to cover...just could not put it down. Wonderfully written, could not guess "who done it". Lovely characters. Can hardly wait for the next in the series. Highly recommend!
