Everyone always says that your honeymoon should be a holiday to remember... Ex-Metropolitan Police sergeant Jodie Parker and her new husband, DCI Nathan Withers , are honeymooning at a luxurious eco-resort on a secluded Cornish island. But there''s a twist: they''re undercover, as the resort''s owner has hired them to investigate a series of sabotages, and Jodie''s mum Shirley and daughter Daisy - and their dog, Germaine - have somehow managed to get themselves invited along too. The happy couple plan to make the most of the five star facilities, while discreetly questioning staff and guests. However, when a fierce storm traps everyone on the island, tragedy strikes - a guest is found dead in the wreckage of the boathouse, and it looks like murder... With a killer among them, it''s up to Jodie and Nathan to solve the mystery before another life is lost. Praise for Fiona Leitch ''Oozing with mystery, style and unforgettable characters - I''m transported into a world of delightful intrigue and murderous mystery , and all home in time for tea. Absolutely fantastic .'' Jonathan Whitelaw, author of The Bingo Hall Detectives ''Leitch''s writing had me snorting with laughter and whizzing through the pages !''
