Summary
"Bless Jo Firestone's quiet, mad genius."—Vulture
Marie Jones has hit rock bottom. Just three months ago, her crime solving alter-ego Luella van Horn cracked the case of a murdered contestant on the hit reality show Sex Island, but now all her gigs have dried up. Marie finds herself on the verge of eviction, broke and alone, in the midst of an August heat wave.
Then she gets a call that might change everything. Luella is asked to find evidence of a woman having an extra-marital affair. The case seems simple enough. The only hitch is that it's on Murder Island, a private island for the uber-rich just outside of New York City. But a job's a job, and maybe it'll be good to get out of town for a bit.
Just as Luella begins her investigation, the suspected paramour is found murdered. Luella soon uncovers a den of iniquity and sexual secrets that will shock the world if the news ever gets out—and if Luella gets out alive. It's her most challenging case yet, but for the first time, she finds herself not alone. She makes some friends in this one!
Murder! Sex! A boat chase on the East River! Pretty exciting stuff, huh?

Critic reviews
“A genius and my hero—there is truly nothing Jo Firestone cannot do.”—Taylor Tomlinson
“A triumph of genre f***ery. The kind of book that makes you laugh out loud on the subway, unashamed to be reading a book with both SEX and MURDER on the cover in huge print . . . Jo Firestone once again proves that not only is she an expert comedian, but she can spin a genuine mystery tale that has you completely unsure of what is going to happen next, in the best way possible.”—Ana Gasteyer
“Fast-paced fun that will appeal to fans of Elle Cosimano’s Finlay Donovan and Jesse Q. Sutanto’s Meddelin Chan.”—Library Journal, starred review
“Wild, wacky . . . somehow even funnier than her first book [and] perfectly over-the-top. Let’s hope there’s a third Luella adventure coming soon. . . . A wonderfully weird mystery.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Hilarious . . . Sexy waiters, spooky butlers, and a kinky boat pilot named Betsy all support Luella’s madcap murder investigation. For sheer laughs, this beats the previous book, and readers will hope to encounter the colorful cast of sidekicks in future installments. It’s a riot.”—Publishers Weekly
