Murder in the Caribbean

When Amelia Albert and her new husband, Robert Flatterly go off on their much needed 7-day honeymoon to the Caribbean, Amelia thought she could kill two birds with one stone. They would have their honeymoon and she could investigate her new cold case that was just placed on her desk that evening. The crime happened two years prior supposedly by a female pirate who lived in 1726.

What she didn't know, was that while they were on thier cruise, two other murders happened in the Caribbean on two different islands that appear to tie into her cold case from home that have the same M.O.s.

As she continues to investigate the crimes, she soon learns someone in a pirate outfit is following her throughout the cruise and that someone wants her dead. On the return trip from the other islands, her cold case from home turns even hotter as she delves deeper into the cases and discovers that a priceless antique book with a white heart-shaped pearl nestled deep inside the book is the motive behind the murders, including the cold case back home.

Will Amelia and her new husband return home from their honeymoon cruise before they become the next victims?
