Event planner, Anna Winters, wants nothing more than to ensure the wedding reception for millionaire Tony Giovani and his beautiful new bride, Meadow, proceeds without a hitch. So far, things have gone exactly as planned. The happy couple's friends and family have gathered at the Grand Palatial, a posh hotel in Bermuda which caters exclusively to the rich and famous, and are anxiously awaiting the cutting of the cake.
Just when Anna is about to call the night a smashing success, the police are summoned to investigate a murder. The cake was poisoned, the groom is dead and suddenly everyone's a suspect. The pandemonium infuriates Anna's boss, Mr. Puccio. He's more worried about the hotel's reputation than the fact a guest is dead and, to make matters worse, he's holding Anna responsible for restoring the hotel's good name. Now it's up to her to find out who killed Tony or else she's out of a job.
The police order the hotel and its occupants detained until further notice and Anna discreetly enlists a few trusted employees to help with her investigation. Clues are discovered, leads are followed,and it isn't long before Anna is dangerously close to the truth. But someone isn't happy about her involvement and Anna has to work fast before she becomes the next victim.
Murder in Bermuda is the first installment in the "Murder in Paradise"cozy mystery series by author Penelope Sotheby.
If you are a fan of cozy mysteries that contain an ingenious but modest woman sleuth then you will love Anna Winters' first adventure.
Interview with the Author
Her phone rang and she picked it up without checking the caller ID.

"You're next if you don't let this go." a hushed raspy voice warned and hung up the phone.
Startled, she looked through the caller ID to see if it showed who made the call. Her stomach felt sick as she came across the number and the name. The killer had taken Tony's phone and used it to call her. Now, there was no denying that the killer indeed knew who she was and knew she was still snooping into matters....
