The Poker Face of Murder
(2025)(The fourth book in the Rose Cruz Cozy Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Audrey Alden
The Midnight Tide’s poker tournament should be all glitz, glamour, and high stakes—until a deadly hand is dealt.
When a notorious high-roller is found lifeless in his suite, his winnings vanished and two golden poker chips eerily placed over his eyes, Cruise Director Rose Dela Cruz knows this isn’t just a simple robbery gone wrong.
As whispers swirl through the ship’s elegant halls, Rose and her loyal beagle Rex follow a trail of counterfeit chips, tampered casino footage, and buried grudges that run deeper than anyone suspects.
With the clock ticking toward the ship’s next port, every friendly smile hides a secret, and every ally could be the one holding the winning card — or the deadly ace.
In a game where trust is the ultimate gamble, Rose must uncover the truth before the killer disappears beneath the waves… and justice is lost to the sea.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
