When psychologist Julie West responds to a call from “reformed” criminal Stefan Lauber, she doesn’t expect to find him murdered in Room 623 at the Cartledge Inn. Even more, she can’t understand why people are calling to reserve that particular room before the body even gets cold. She’s going to find out, though, even if it means working with the man she secretly loves to solve the mystery. And once Julie and Pastor James Burton are on the case, there’s no time to dwell on unrequited love. Not when there’s a murderer on the loose, odd detectives to work with...and more killings to come. Note: This is a previously published work. For readers who purchased the original edition, this second edition is not substantially different.

A dinner party turns into a case of whodunit when the host, millionaire Roger Harden, is found dead before the first course. On the scene are psychologist Julie West and Reverend James Burton, who don their detective hats to take a closer look at their fellow partygoers. There are ten possible suspects, all sharing close living quarters at the millionaire’s secluded home on Palm Island. Each one harbors deep secrets and a reasonable motive to have wanted Roger gone. But in order to uncover the true criminal, Julie must first push aside her growing attraction to the reverend, and focus on a different type of fascination—one for murder. Note: This is a previously published work. For readers who purchased the original edition, this second edition is not substantially different.

After their broken engagement, there’s only one thing that can get unbeatable crime-solvers Julie West and Reverend James Burton back into action—the murder of a beloved friend. No one can figure out who would have a motive to kill Twila Belk, who was a saint by all accounts. Paying for a cruise to Antarctica for 48 of her “closest friends” was just one of many generous gifts she bestowed upon those around her. When the body of the benefactress is discovered on Brown Bluff Island, Julie and James must set their past aside to bring the killer to justice and along the way, perhaps, uncover a new beginning for themselves.
