Description

Police Sergeant Reynolds sighed. “Of course he was murdered, Maggie. You’re in the vicinity.”

“A low blow,” I said indignantly. “Before today, I hadn’t found a dead body in six weeks. And this is just a head.”

Ex-cop-turned-P.I. Maggie Doyle is stuck chaperoning a group of bratty summer camp kids on an archaeological dig on Whisper Island. After a day of fart jokes, fidget spinners, and fistfights, Maggie's regretting volunteering—and then one of her feral charges unearths a skeleton.

At first, it looks like a cold case, but the situation takes a sinister turn when a member of the excavation team winds up dead. Maggie is determined to get to the bottom of the mystery before more bodies stack up. With her police officer boyfriend on vacation, his nitwitted fellow officer Sergeant O’Shea is left to maintain law and order on the island. Can Maggie dodge the bumbling Sergeant, solve the case and escape these hellion children?

***Includes a recipe for one of Maggie’s favorite cocktails!***

    I enjoyed the setting of the story (an island off the Irish coast), as well as the many colorful characters. The romantic tension between the heroine and a local policeman adds interest, too.

    Maggie Doyle’s character really starts to shine in this book of the series. She gets to meet and deal with her boyfriends daughter and the daughter of her nemesis. Naturally, it does not start well but, I’ll leave it to you to figure out how it turns out. Well worth the investment of your time and money.
  • I’m very much enjoying this series.
