Angus McDonald and Annie Colston are not your typical amateur sleuths. When Annie is offered a 3-book publishing deal with Bonne Joie Books, she delves into the possibility of signing the contract. But she just doesn’t trust the publisher, Randall Collins. When she finds out that several authors want to sue him because their royalties are missing, she and Angus take a closer look and discover dangerous people targeting authors in a scheme to launder money for organized crime. As the body count goes up, Angus and Annie escape to the Bahamas, only to find that trouble got there before they did!

Sara M. Barton is the author of several popular cozy mystery series that often feature humor, romance, and pets, but no ghosts, witches, or psychics (It’s not that she thinks these are bad books; it’s that she’s more of a traditionalist when it comes to cozies.)

She’s the author of a new historical mystery called "The Pantomime Double-Cross", with a heroine who has lived a secret life for forty-five years, unbeknownst to family and friends.

Under the pen name of S. M. Barton, she’s written several espionage thrillers, including "The Mirrors: A Moscow Joe Cyberspy Thriller".

Once she wraps up the final chapter of her old life, Sara’s slated to begin her new life and tackle her overdue bucket list. When she’s not writing, she loves to get outside and enjoy nature, especially after hip replacement: “If my new hip were a man, I would marry him in a heartbeat for all the right reasons. He’s good to me, takes me wherever I want to go, and he’s fun to be around. Perfect qualities in a mate.”

Happy Reading!

When she gets a call from one of the companies main writers she begins to ask questions. The next thing you know Angus and her are in the middle of a real big mess. Can they figure this out before it is too late for Annie?

You really have to keep track of what you're reading with these books. They get pretty convoluted. Deja vu with the kidnappings. On to my last book of the series.

This was a fun story to read. The main characters are a very likeable couple. They have been dating for awhile and have some neat adventures. I recommend this book.

Slow start, good finish

Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2021

Must admit this book took me awhile to finish. As much as I like Angus and Annie I put this one down for days at a time. Wasn't until the criminal element git involved that I sat for hours straight to finish. They need to be together. Here's to future adventures with Annie and Angus and the dogs. Thank you.

I like this book a lot. Angus and Ani have a good relationship they are not actually dating but they are very good friends and it seems like he would like to date but she is holding off and values the friendship. They enjoy eating out and talking about food a lot. And she gets involved in a murder mystery and risk her life in solving it. She’s very smart and she figures out what is going on even before the FBI. Angus is there as her partner and he helps her along the way in solving the crime. I love this book and I hope there are more

This book is a perfect example of why the "take a peek" feature for novels doesn't actually work that well. For the first three or four chapters, I thought I would really enjoy the story. But then.... I can say that the book was well-written, and that the plot was well-developed, with some surprising twists and turns. I can also say that the author certainly had an in-depth knowledge of the subject matter: self-publishing vs traditional publishing. But there were just details which left me in a state of, "Huh" or "What?!" The main character comments that a person she met for perhaps 45 seconds, as they answered the door to her, was someone she would have liked for a friend. Huh? What? Long scenes are devoted to eating out and the food served, which is mildly interesting, but fails to really further the story. In the final assessment, this is a pleasant enough book, but not a mystery that I will ever re-read, and not intriguing enough to make me want to read the rest of the series.
