Murder in Antigua (Paperback) by Leslie Hills

<p>No one is worried when flight attendant Betty McNair disappears while on a layover in Antigua. Known for her laziness and less-than-exemplary "sleeping" habits, her fellow crewmembers are merely annoyed and decide to fly on to Baltimore without her.</p> <p>But the next day, Mercury, a member of the flight crew, spies a body floating in Baltimore's Inner Harbor while walking her friend's dog. The corpse is Betty, and Mercury's life is about to get a lot more complicated.</p> <p>Helped by her best friends, Roxie and Rex, and her psychic mother, Madame Zinski, Mercury soon discovers that Betty was embroiled in a dangerous game of smuggling, money laundering, and blackmail. </p> <p>Things take an unexpected personal turn, however, when her hunt for the killer leads her to question a winsome pirate named Rick. In spite of her recent skepticism toward romance, sparks fly between the two and Mercury is drawn to a man for the first time since her husband's death. But will solving Betty's murder also uncover intolerable truths about Rick?</p> <p>In <i>Murder in Antigua</i>, you never know what lurks behind the next page. But, whether it's danger, humor, or romance, one thing is certain-you'll enjoy every word.</p>
