Murder never takes a vacation, not even in paradise. That's what Private Investigator Cate Harlow discovers while she's on a Hawaiian vacation with her sexy ex, NYPD detective, Will Benigni.

Their vacation is unceremoniously interrupted by not one, but two murders, at the famed and upscale Kahala Resort where Cate and Will are staying.

Hindering the police investigation at the resort is a group of amateur sleuths calling themselves the Make Mine Murder Society. The wealthy women in the society are led by the pompous and shady Mr. Arnold, a self-styled "expert in the grisly methods of murder."

When Cate and Will are asked by Will's old college roommate, the police captain in charge of the murder investigation, for help in solving the murders, Cate's dream vacation becomes a danger zone that leads her to an unexpected killer and a desperate fight to avoid becoming the next victim.
