内容简介

Knives, poison, strangulationER nurse Darcy Cavanaugh is about to show-and-tell all kinds of deathly dos and don'ts for a mystery writers' workshop at sea. Teaching A Nurses' Guide to Murder in exchange for a Caribbean cruise was a small price to pay for what should have been a vacation in paradise. That is, if she didn't have to share deck space with her boyfriend's uptight mother!Aspiring novelist and wife to a powerful Virginia judge, Mrs. Skyler wishes her son had better breeding prospects than a redheaded Yankee from California. To make matters worse, the Skyler matriarch wants to submit her novel to a merciless agent whose biting criticism is matched only by her squawking, sailor-tongued parrot. In a crazy twist, a real murder takes place and the judge's wife becomes the main suspect. To protect her boyfriend's mother, Darcy scrambles to peg the real killer from a tangled and nutty cast of desperate writers, overzealous fans, a and distracting male cover models with killer abs.'Snarky literary agents, desperate authors, hot men in kilts-and of course, handsome FBI agent Luke Skyler-are all on board to make "Mai Tai to Murder" Darcy Cavanaugh's most rollicking cruise yet. Candy Calvert just keeps getting better and better-the only way you'll have more fun is if you book your own Caribbean cruise! Mai Tai to Murder is the perfect summer read' - Karen MacInerney, Agatha Award nominated author, "The Gray Whale Inn Mysteries".
