The Flamingo Frame-Up
(2027)(The tenth book in the Enchanted Coast Magical Mystery series)
A novel by Tegan Maher
What kind of person gets stabbed with a pink flamingo lawn ornament at a beach luau? Apparently the kind who checks into the wrong room. Welcome to the Enchanted Coast.
When a thoroughly unpleasant guest is found dead among the tiki torches and leis, everyone assumes somebody finally snapped. Unfortunately, solving the case isn't nearly that simple. Annoying though he was, the victim wasn't the killer's intended target. A last-minute room assignment left the wrong man dead, which means the real target—a dangerous fugitive hiding in plain sight somewhere on the resort—is still very much alive... and the killer is bound to try again.
As if one investigation weren't enough, someone steals the Pearl of the Gulf, the legendary jewel displayed inside the casino that's said to bring good luck to everyone who visits the resort. Whether the pearl is actually magical or generations of hopeful gamblers simply made it that way, nobody can agree. What everyone does agree on is that the moment it disappears, luck seems to vanish with it. Slot machines break down, weddings go sideways, guests blame every mishap on the missing pearl, and finding it quickly becomes almost as important as catching a murderer.
Can Destiny uncover a killer before they claim their intended victim, recover the resort's most treasured good-luck charm, and keep the Enchanted Coast from becoming the unluckiest place on the Gulf?
Genre: Cozy Mystery
