Paradise Prey

by Jackie Brooks

Overview

Trouble is brewing in Paradise. Tess Titan, former Marine Patrol Officer, is waist deep in pigmy rattlesnakes, scorpion fish, stinkhorns, and lilies. All are deadly tools being used by a hit man to try and kill Tess and her family over a secret worth billions that will fund the resurgence of a crime family.Tess thought she could hide from her past, but living in Paradise is becoming far from peaceful. Her husband is having a sexual identity crisis, while her social high-stepping mother has Tess biting her tongue and wishing for amnesia. Her best friend makes a Stepford Wife look scruffy, and her godmother is acting like Don Quixote in drag. You add a corpse on a pirate ship, the theft of F. Scott Fitzgerald, a Contessa sending a letter AFTER she's dead, a revelation that saves lives, and you've got a Tess Titan Mystery.

About the Author

Jackie Brooks was born in Washington D.C. and has lived in Panama City Beach, Florida for the past twenty years. Living in a small, southern, tourist community provides situations and characters that just scream to be written about. Being the youngest of three girls, her sisters will tell you she's always gotten away with murder. So it only makes sense that she writes mystery novels. She writes with her trusty dog, Buddie (a flat coated retriever) under her chair, and her cat, Kit Kat (named after the Knight Rider car), on her desk behind the laptop. Her favorite afternoon snack is cookies and a Starbucks coffee frappuccino (only 200 calories per bottle)!
