HOT FLASHES & HOMICIDE

Meet your new favorite amateur sleuths: three delightfully unbothered retirees who refuse to age quietly and absolutely will not mind their business. If you love cozy mysteries, female amateur sleuths, and small-town secrets, welcome to Conch Key, a sun-soaked Florida beach town where the gossip travels faster than the tide. It’s all palm trees and porch swings until a very dead real estate developer in designer loafers washes up and turns this seaside mystery into a full-blown scandal. Daisy Picklesworth planned to spend her retirement reading cozy mystery novels, not solving one. But when a suspicious charm surfaces, the victim’s past gets murky, and the local police chief insists she stay out of it, Daisy does what any self-respecting nosy amateur detective would do: dive in headfirst. Good thing she has backup. Her inner circle includes a glamorous best friend with sharp instincts, a no-nonsense skeptic who trusts no one, and a sweet-but-sneaky observer who misses nothing. Together, they sip mimosas, chase clues, and unravel a twisty whodunit filled with secrets, lies, and a few very stylish suspects. Expect humorous cozy mystery vibes, found family friendships, and a cast of quirky characters in a charming coastal setting. This is a lighthearted mystery packed with small-town intrigue, beachside drama, and just enough danger to keep things interesting. Perfect for fans of: Cozy mystery series with strong female leads Beach reads with a murder mystery twist Senior sleuths and retirement-age detectives Clean mysteries with humor and heart If you like your mysteries sunny, snarky, and served with pastries, this Florida cozy mystery is ready to sweep you away.
