Books By The Beach!


My pick for a great cozy mystery 
beach themed book is

DEATH OF THE BIG KAHUNA
#6 in the Aloha Lagoon Mysteries
by Catherine Bruns


From USA Today bestselling author Catherine Bruns, comes an Aloha Lagoon Mystery that proves sometimes paradise isn't all it's served up to be. 

New to both Hawaii and the Aloha Lagoon Resort, Carrie Jorgenson has big dreams of stardom. But while she awaits fame and fortune, she's forced to accept a job waitressing at the resort's The Loco Moco Café. It isn't long before she discovers the dish on her new boss—also known to many as "The Big Kahuna." Hale Akamu is rich, handsome, repulsive...and dead. When Carrie discovers Hale's lifeless body, she's suddenly forced into yet another role—amateur sleuth. With everyone from Carrie to the saucy chef to the café's hot assistant manager under suspicion, Carrie needs to track a killer before she becomes his next main entrée!
 
**Recipes included!**

DEATH OF THE BIG KAHUNA
is a great mystery and a fun read!
(I've never read a bad book by Catherine Bruns)

Don't let the fact that it's book #6 is a series to keep you from reading it. Each book in the 
Aloha Lagoon Mysteries is written by a different author, and can be read as a stand alone!

    1. I haven't read all of the books in the series. Each one has a different author. But if Catherine Bruns writes a book, I'll read it!

  4. Ok so this series really isn't dependent at all on reading the books before it? If the authors are all different then the characters are too? So definitely a stand alone. I kinda hate to break my own rule of starting other than 1 but hey this is summer reading, get crazy right? ;) LOL
