Murder In Malibu: A Miss Merry Mac Mystery

STORY SYNOPSIS

Dana Precious, the author of the hilarious Born Under A Lucky Moon novel, now brings you MURDER IN MALIBU — the debut book of the ‘Miss Merry Mac Murder Mystery’ comedic series. Merry MacIntosh was a normal small-town girl working as a waitress at the North Muskegon Steak ‘N Egger until life picked her up and dropped her on her head. First she married the whirl-wind love of her life — James — a man she thought was a truck driver. When he is murdered Merry discovers James is actually the heir to billions of dollars — suddenly HER billions of dollars. She would have traded it all to have her James back. Now under mysterious circumstances Merry finds herself on a trip to California courtesy of the swanky magazine Travel & Glamour. But no sooner has she landed in Malibu then a murder once again lands in her lap, almost literally. A glittering A-list film star has plummeted – or been pushed – to her death dropping into the bushes right next to Merry’s lounge chair. Complicating matters further is the gorgeous, dark-eyed stranger who seems to always be near when any trouble begins. When Merry is considered the prime suspect in the starlet’s murder she must start her own investigation to clear her name. She is aided by Miss Silverweather, her embarrassing and politically incorrect, 80-year-old companion and Boy, her trusty Border Terrier. Malibu is heating up fast because as Merry gets closer to the truth the real murderer gets closer to her.

Reviews:

I had this book on my wish list for awhile now. Thanks to that nice, unexpected credit, I got a few books I always wanted, but other things always came up. I just loved this book! A widow,who inherited billions,the late husband’s crazy elderly nanny, the crazy son, who didn’t get all the money, the butler in the house of Hollywood Royalty, where Merry Mac has been staying to write a travel article, because she can’t seen to wrap her mind around the fact she’s loaded, and a boozing cop.Needless to say, murder and mayhem ensue, making for a really enjoyable read.
I finished it, and went right back to Amazon to order the next one, but there is none.
I hope Ms Precious has one in the works,as I haven’t enjoyed a book so much, not since I discovered Janet and Stephanie Plum

Unlike mysteries that take themselves way too seriously, Murder In Malibu holds your attention, gets you up close and personal with all of the characters and not just the main character. Humor and mystery mingle together in this well thought out book. This is the start of a great series.

I just finished reading the book on a beach in costa rica…read both of ms.precious’s books and both are great.
Murder in Malibu is very funny and suspenseful..great characters and a good fun look at the Hollywood life…
looking forward to the next book
