Palm trees, white sandy beaches and a perfect turquoise sea. Jamaica’s Montego Bay might just be paradise. If people didn’t keep getting murdered.
Detective Preddy hoped for a quiet start to the new year. But there’s a murder at Sugar Rush Beach. A man is stabbed through the heart with an antique awl.
The victim, Jerome Baccus, was the nephew of a local developer who wanted to transform this quiet beach into a high-end tourist complex. Now he’s dead.
Everything points to a rival developer. But Preddy realizes other people might have wanted to kill Jerome:
His two girlfriends.
The Sugar Rush beach vendors.
The sugar daddy of one girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Preddy must work with Scottish detective Sean Harris. And Preddy knows that Harris is conducting a covert internal investigation.
When a woman is found dead, the stakes are raised. And everyone’s career is on the line.
A gripping crime mystery perfect for fans of Death in Paradise and Biba Pearce, Steph Broadribb, Rachel Howzell Hall, Ian Rankin, Chris Collett, Abir Mukherjee, Val McDermid, and Rachel McLean.

MEET THE DETECTIVES:
Raythan Preddy is a tough-talking, patriotic Jamaican detective and leader of the Pelican Walk Major Crimes Team. Determined to halt the murder rate in Montego Bay despite limited resources and a hostile top brass, Preddy gets the additional help in the form of newly-arrived foreigner, Sean Harris. But the jury is out on whether the new guy is going to be any good. Or whether the locals will understand his broad Glaswegian brogue.
Sean Harris is an outspoken, red-headed Scottish detective with a stubborn streak. In his fifties, with nearly two decades in law enforcement, he’s been sent on secondment to Jamaica. While sympathetic to the cause of crime reduction, Harris is frustrated by the Jamaican methods of policing and not shy with his opinions. Much to the chagrin of his new colleagues.
