Tropical Treachery

Turquoise waters, golden sands, and a touch of treachery. The Cayman Islands, a sun-kissed paradise where the ocean whispers tales of adventure, has a dark story of its own to tell.

DeeDee, Jake, Al, and Cassie wanted nothing more than to soak up the Caribbean sun and escape the chilling memories of the murders they've confronted back home. But fate has a different plan. Among the swaying palm trees and the refreshing sea breeze, a murder shatters their getaway, and this isn't just any victim. The dead man is Nicky Luchesse, a figure from Al's murky past with the Mafia.

As the tropical sun casts long shadows and secrets bubble to the surface, our quartet realizes that paradise has its own set of rules. Their vacation turns into a thrilling chase, weaving through tales of old loyalties, vendettas, and motives as murky as the deep blue waters around them.

With delicious seafood feasts, heart-stopping underwater adventures, and a splash of island rum to keep spirits high, this cozy mystery will make you feel the heat of the Caribbean sun, the thrill of the chase, and the chill of a murder unsolved.

Dive deep into this sun-soaked enigma, the ninth entrancing installment of the Northwest Cozy Mystery Series, expertly penned by a two-time USA Today Bestselling Author.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Great Read, Mystery Lovers

As a first time reader of the talented Dianne Harman’s prose, I found her story Murder in the Cayman Islands extremely well written and thought out. She provided just the correct hooks via every chapter, always holding my interest and turning the pages in this fun, cozy mystery with a cast of stimulating characters.

Although this book is ninth in a series, I had no trouble figuring out which character belonged where and to whom, the folks who were friends, and those with possible enemies. Then, there are those rumors about buried treasure out on a manmade reef piquing everyone’s interest.

Here’s the skinny: There’s a long list of folks with reason to want to kill Nicky Luchesse – Chicago mobster affiliates, ex girlfriends bearing grudges, a cannabis smuggler with something to hide, and so on. One of Nicky’s many enemies apparently has had enough of whatever he’s been doling out, and completes the evil deed.

Helping the local police with their murder investigation are Nicky’s friend Al DeDuco, who finds the body, Al’s wife Cassie, along with their friends DeeDee and Jake, who’ve been invited down to the Cayman’s by the DeDuco’s for a fun vacation quickly that quickly turns into dangerous disasters and mayhem.

I never review and spoil the journey for the next reader, but Ms. Harman’s Murder in the Cayman Islands, A Northwest Cozy Mystery is well worth the five stars I’ve awarded it. What a great read!

This story is set in the Cayman Islands with edge of your seat action as the characters try to figure out who the killer is with no shortage of suspects. There are unscrupulous gangsters who smuggle contraband in and out of the Cayman Islands until one shipment goes missing along with its boat leading to the murder of one of the participants.

I couldn't stop picking up this book every chance I got to find out what was going in the investigation to find the murderer.

Thanks, Dianne, for such an entertaining book!

Another good story with some of Al's old friends. It was good to have the whole old crew back for this one. Story leaves us worrying about Al and hoping he will be okay.

I love this series because you get to know the characters. They are light crime and by that I mean it isn't bloody crime with descriptions of all the horror. I read those too but this series is great when I just want to curl up and read before falling asleep or on a stay in the house afternoon!

Last year had too many murder cases, and to get a vacation for two weeks sounds idle. Especially in the Cayman Island, with friends. This time it was too close, next door, and a long time friend of Al’s. What all was he mixed up in, beside having two girl friends. Enjoyable, to figure out, a brief time in the Cayman Island, with promises to come again.

A very disappointing book, the plot is nutty and appears to be a report of a series of events. Certainly not my taste
