Murder on Naked Beach: A Lucy Ripken Mystery (The Lucy Ripken Mysteries Book 1)

Lucy Ripken is 30-something, single, and struggling to make it as a photographer in New York City. Smart, tough, and fiercely protective of her friends and privacy, all Lucy really wants is a life of travel and adventure, and maybe a devilishly handsome bad decision to share it with. She finds all three in Murder on Naked Beach, the first novel of this sizzling new mystery series.

It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation, but it isn’t long before there’s a corpse in a hot tub and a killer on the loose. The company line claims the victim died of a heart attack, but Lucy’s not buying it. It isn’t long before her sleuthing leads her way off Jamaica's beaten tourist path, and straight into danger, drug smuggling, and into the crosshairs of a sexy- and suspicious- DEA agent.

With Murder on Naked Beach, author J.J. Henderson introduces us to a sassy and sexy new sleuth in this suspenseful and sharply funny novel.
