Charley Marsh

Harriet Monroe’s new job as PR director for the exclusive Island Resort is a dream come true. Except for the dead bodies that keep turning up.

Working in public relations means Harriet needs to experience everything the resort has to offer. She takes her closest friend with her to check out the resort’s amazing spa–only to have a woman collapse and die at their feet before they even make it past the reception area.

According to the granddaughter, the dead woman had no known enemies. So who wanted her dead? Harriet needs to help the island’s security director find the answer before word of the murder gets picked up by the ever-hungry news media. News of another murder would destroy the newly opened resort’s reputation.

When a wealthy woman dies unexpectedly the cops always look at who will benefit. The dependent granddaughter? The granddaughter’s struggling boyfriend? Another guest? The more answers they find, the more questions they have–until nothing makes any sense. Who killed Alice Haggedorn and why?

Masked in Paradise: A Destination Death Mystery

Harriet Monroe’s dream job as public relations director for the exclusive Island Resort should be a piece of cake. After all, the resort has everything the well-heeled require for a top of the line vacation. If it wasn’t for those bodies that keep popping up . . .

When the high profile Pelookie family books a week long retreat at the resort, Harriet works extra hard to give them what they want. This includes four busts of the family leaders carved in ice for a special unveiling at the week’s final family event.

Exhausted from keeping everyone happy, Harriet can’t wait for the big event to be over and done with–until she checks on the ice sculptures and discovers that one has been defaced. Worse, she finds a frozen body locked in the kitchen’s industrial freezer with the sculptures.

Against her better judgement, Harriet gets drawn into the Pelookie family’s darkest secrets–and learns that that is a very dangerous place to be.

Frozen in Paradise: A Destination Death Mystery

Despite a spate of murders at the high-end Island Resort, Harriet Monroe loves her job. The resort made the coveted number one spot on Pampered Magazine's list for "must-visit" vacations and she intends to hang onto that position with her new ad campaigns. If only life would stop getting in the way.

When the resort's chief financial officer moves into the cottage next to Harriet's she tries to be a good neighbor but he treats her like three day old fish earmarked for the trash bin. Then a well-to-do guest, a famous action hero film star, reports his personal assistant missing and it's all hands on deck to find the young woman. As if she wasn't busy enough, Harriet begins working with a world-renowned neurologist to try to retrieve the memories from her first eight years. The procedures could be harmful- and the memories downright dangerous.

A cozy mystery set in a tropical island resort with amateur sleuth Harriet Monroe.
