The Last Resort

This riveting story is part mystery, social commentary, and fascinating Hawaiiana. Grace Hill, the narrator, tells the hidden truth about what goes on behind closed doors of The Palms, an independent retirement community in Hawaii. Grace and her Clue Crew of three friends help a Hawaiian police detective solve six mysterious deaths among the residents. Characters are the flamboyant manager of the home and her bumbling husband, a transgender masseuse, a tipsy Cajun chef, a militant social director, and 110 rattled seniors who survive a ballistic missile alert, a hurricane, and a norovirus epidemic. This irreverent romp through everyday life in a retirement home is the sequel to Menu For Murder, published in 2015, in which the Clue Crew and police crack the murders of five residents.
