From the back cover:
A murderous vacation
After a cold winter in Cabot Cove, Maine, and with another soon-to-be bestsseller on the way to her publisher, mystery writer Jessica Fletcher is off to balmy St. Thomas with its aquarmine sea and white sand beaches.
But from the moment Jessica arrives at a four-star inn nestled by a beautiful lagoon, she senses trouble in paradise. Owners Laurie and Walkter Marschalk are in deep water over money troubles and competition from a big hotel nearby. Yet, the gourment food, and beautiful sunsets, chase away Jessica's concerns...unstil she finds Walkter's throat-slit corpse at the edge of the lagoon. The island police think that a hot-tempered ex-employee is the killer. But for cool-headed Jessica it's time to unpack her talent for sleuthing...and discover if the serpeant in this Eden is a slick business partner, a young travel writer, a rival hotelier, or even lovely Laurie Marschalk herself.
