DOUBLE TROUBLE

A Dalai Mama Cozy Mystery – Book One

By Beth Blessing

Dalai Winters just wants a peaceful life, a steady massage therapy business, and a quiet home shared with her energetic 10-year-old twin boys.

And no more drama than a single mom in a quirky coastal town can reasonably expect.

But things are about to change.

When one of Dalai's longtime massage clients—and her best friend—Carmella Gordon—is found dead under suspicious circumstances, the town is shaken. And when Dalai becomes the police department's favorite "person of interest," Dalai knows this isn't just a tragedy. It's murder, and she's going to find out the truth.

Armed with intuition, stubborn determination, and the ability to eavesdrop while giving deep-tissue massages, Dalai begins her own investigation. But Red Cape Bay is full of secrets wrapped in small-town charm, and the deeper Dalai digs, the more she realizes this murder is linked to a chain of events that never should have happened…and a suspect the police never even noticed.

With her twins causing gleeful chaos at the worst possible moments and the truth twisted at every turn, Dalai will have to use every ounce of wit, bravery, heart—and the occasional little white fib—to uncover the real culprit.

Because in Red Cape Bay, the difference between a client and a corpse can be as thin as the sheet on her massage table.

And Dalai Winters is about to learn that solving a murder is anything but relaxing.

DOUBLE TROUBLE is the first book of The Dalai Mama Cozy Mystery series (all books are stand-alone), set in the delightful, small town of Red Cape Bay, Connecticut—Perfect for readers who love quirky characters, sassy banter, heartfelt humor, clever clues, and an amateur sleuth with real heart.
