and Lucy is itching to escape to a warmer climate. An expensive vacation is out of the question, but Lucy manages to talk her way onto a press junket to Jamaica to photograph a posh new resort. Once her photo shoot is done, she'll have plenty of time left for windsurfing and catching up with her travel-writing buddies. Instead, Lucy finds one of them dead in the hot tub on the resort's little island, known as Naked Beach. Although everyone claims the writer died of a heart attack, Lucy smells mischief and is determined to find out what really happened. But her curiosity leads her way off Jamaica's beaten tourist path, and straight into danger, drug smuggling, and into the bed of a man with something to hide.
With Murder on Naked Beach, author J.J. Henderson introduces us to a sassy and sexy new sleuth in this suspenseful and sharply funny novel.
“Travel writer Henderson's series kickoff shows promise, a terrific premise, great local color and an appealing cast...”
