  The Tequila Killings (Poe Book 8)

  A deadly fall. A dodgy past. Can Poe uncover the truth before a match made in paradise ends in disaster? Poe has the luxury of picking and choosing the cases that spark his curiosity. So when his love-struck mother-in-law demands he trail her latest squeeze, he thinks he’s wasting his time. Until a mysterious woman from the boyfriend’s past falls off his balcony to her death.

  Wave of Deception (Poe Book 9)

  A beach execution. A devastating hurricane. Can Maui's best PI solve the case without his family members becoming the prime suspects? Poe is used to weathering difficult cases. And since the victim is his sister-in-law’s abusive ex-boyfriend, Poe hopes nobody looks too hard at his own compelling motive. Ignoring the sound advice to keep his nose out, Poe spars with the island’s newest police detective who seems to have her own hidden motivations, especially when she asks Poe to help her with another case. Poe has never taken on two murder investigations at once. But as he gets closer to the truth, will he like the answers he finds?

  The Last Kill (Poe Book 10)

  Lights. Camera. Murder. When lies become reality, can Poe find the truth before a killer strikes again? As Maui’s best private investigator, Edgar Allan “Poe” Rutherford understands the importance of keeping a low profile. That becomes impossible when a new reality TV show comes to the island, which features an eccentric handful of divorcees looking for love. But when one of the women is poisoned to death, the show’s production comes to a grinding halt. At the same time, a few miles down the beach, a divorce attorney is stabbed multiple times while she sits on a lounge chair and watches the sun set over the Pacific Ocean. The methods of murder, as well as the victims, couldn’t be more different, yet Poe has a sneaking suspicion they’re somehow related.

  Mountain of Lies (Poe Book 11)

  A cold body. A warm paradise. A murder with more than one culprit. Private investigator Edgar Allan “Poe” Rutherford is worried. His latest client may have committed homicide, and sharing his suspicions with his detective wife is an argument he’d rather not have. But when she arrests his new employer, catching the true perpetrator means keeping it in the family. Never one to let loose ends go untied, Poe’s off-the-record investigation uncovers another suspect connected to foul play from years before. And now he’s not sure if he’s solving one lethal crime or two.

  Rich and Dead (Poe Book 12)

  Texas Hold ’em in paradise. A table full of suspects. The minimum bet could cost him his life. PI Edgar Allan “Poe” Rutherford is tired of taking down murderers. So, when a detective comes to him with a suspicious case of a millionaire who drove off a Maui cliff, he declines her request for help. But when the victim’s scorned lover demands money in exchange for information, Poe is pulled back into the game. Demanding answers from the selfish vulture, the relentless private eye uncovers a connection to a high-seas, high-stakes illicit poker ring. And after he discovers the vicious men involved, he’s convinced the death was no accident. But to find the murderer, the charming PI needs to get on the yacht and take a seat at the table. Can the sharp-witted investigator flush out a sinister cabal before he’s dealt a dead man’s hand?
