A Murder in Eight Cocktails
Format:
Pre-order:
Mix one old flame with a splash of suspicion for the perfect…murder?
In the seaside haven of Carmel-By-The-Sea, Willa Keane’s marriage is in a rut. As a retired interior designer turned influencer, she’s sure life begins at fifty-five, whereas her husband, Marty, is more interested in watching his beloved birds.
So when Willa is invited to the opening of the chicest new cocktail bar in town, she hopes the party will rekindle their flame.
Arriving at the party Will is shaken to discover the bar is co-owned by her charming ex-husband, Paul. The evening is thrown into chaos when the bar’s other owner is found dead on the rocks.
A suicide message suggests there’s no foul play, but Willa’s heightened senses aren’t so sure.
Now she must solve the mystery together with her husband…and her ex-husband.
Can they find the killer before another victim is served their last cocktail?
