An Entertaining Cozy Mystery Featuring a Female Sleuth and a Killer Reunion

Unlucky detective Jane Grey is back—caught in a deadly game at her high school reunion in this witty cozy murder mystery.

Jane’s life as a private investigator hasn’t exactly been glamorous. Since joining Hyde’s detective agency in New York, work has been slow, and Jane’s infamous bad luck hasn’t helped. She’s already blown up the fax machine, ruined a stakeout, and poisoned herself with bad sushi. So when an invitation arrives for their elite high school reunion at a luxury hotel in the forests of upstate New York, Jane and Hyde jump at the chance to network and maybe snag a new client.

But the weekend of nostalgia turns sinister. The opulent Greystone Inn, owned by Jane’s old classmate Max Hartwell, is crawling with secrets. Old rivalries spark, grudges resurface, and romantic tension between Jane and Hyde threatens to complicate everything. Then tragedy strikes: Vivian Bishop—the glamorous prom queen—is found dead, her body sprawled below a balcony, Jane’s name scrawled in blood at the scene, Jane's vintage locket clutched in her hand.

Now Jane is the prime suspect in a murder that shocks everyone. Detective Mark Lawson wants her in cuffs before the weekend ends. To clear her name, she must:
✔ Track down a killer among her ex-classmates
✔ Untangle blackmail, betrayal, and long-buried scandals
✔ Navigate Hyde’s maddening charm (and her inconvenient feelings)
✔ Survive her own disastrous streak of bad luck

All before the weekend ends. Can she solve the case before the killer silences her forever?

With sharp humor, sizzling banter, and a twisty plot full of red herrings, Murder at the Hotel is perfect for fans of funny cozy mysteries, female sleuths, and slow-burn romantic tension.
