She used to run Michelin-starred kitchens. Now, Chloe Scott is discovering that hunting a murderer requires the same precision as a perfect soufflé.

Chloe Scott traded her Michelin-starred apron for a juice bar on the sun-drenched shores of Bluebird Island, hoping for a life where the most “urgent demand” was deciding which fruit to blend next. She wanted peace, quiet, and a chance to navigate her grief in paradise.

But when Captain Morgan Batson drops dead at the port, the local Sergeant is all too happy to blame a bad sandwich and get back to the cricket match. Only Officer Dayton Madlow—a young detective who’s read one too many mystery novels—suspects foul play.

Chloe’s professional pride is piqued (no one accuses a chef’s food of being lethal!), and soon she’s trading her juice press for a magnifying glass. Between dodging her mother’s “helpful” advice on her love life and keeping her precocious nine-year-old out of trouble, Chloe discovers that Bluebird Island is hiding more secrets than a pirate’s treasure chest.

With a ship due to sail and a killer potentially hiding in plain sight, can Chloe help the bumbling but earnest Dayton find the truth before the trail goes cold?.

Grab a cold drink and head to the beach—justice is about to be served!
