Maggie Thomas, private investigator extraordinaire, was hoping for nothing more than a lazy weekend reading on the beach, ocean breeze in her hair, and not a crime in sight. But when a local beach yoga instructor is found dead at sunrise—face down in the surf with a seashell stuck in her bun—it’s clear murder has come to Miami Beach... again.

The prime suspect? Dorothy Raye’s cousin Twinkle, a free-spirited surfer who says she’s being framed. Dorothy insists on defending her cousin’s honor (and wardrobe choices), dragging Maggie straight into a tangled web of beachside drama, love triangles, and one very competitive paddleboard tournament.

Detective Jake Jackson wants Maggie out of harm’s way, but Maggie’s not one to back down... especially when she discovers someone’s been hiding a secret stash of stolen goods. Reynold Mitchell offers legal advice and grilled fish tacos, but even his charm might not be enough to keep Maggie from diving into danger.

With a killer on the loose, a town full of suspects in flip-flops, and Dorothy planning a "Justice Luau," Maggie will need SPF 100 and her sharpest instincts to catch the murderer before she ends up as the next headline in the coastal crime column.
