Publisher Description

Introducing Starling and Swift, the new clean cozy mystery series!

Kitty Swift travels around the sunny Yucatan peninsula assisting luxury cruise ship groups as an interpreter for the deaf. After a disastrous broken engagement, she's perfectly content to spend her days with her service dog, Chica, and a motley crew of wealthy vacationers. Her life revolves around playing Bingo, enjoying the chocolate fountain, and passing along the occasional complaint about the quality of the bed sheets. On a cruise ship the food is good, the music is lively, and everyone is friendly.

Life is quiet, just as it should be... until murder arrives in the night.

At the top of a Mayan pyramid in the humid jungle, one of her tour group is found sacrificed to the gods. A clue left at the scene makes it clear this is a deeply personal act of revenge― and the killer may have another victim in his sights.
As the entire tour group is brought in for questioning, Kitty and Chica find themselves in a race against time. A hurricane is bearing down on the city, the cruise ship is set to depart, and they're sequestered in an embassy house with a vicious murderer. The only person standing in her way is an enigmatic attaché to the American embassy who doesn't take kindly to all her questions― especially about himself.

Should Kitty be on guard against the mysterious detective, or are they birds of a feather in search of a killer?

A clean, cozy mystery of approximately 180 pages with recipes!

Loved this cozy mystery, quick read, a few grammatical errors but didn’t distract from the story overall. :)

Murder at the Mayan Temple

Good story liked Leander and that Kitty prayed continuously - lots of editing needed that kept me from staying engrossed in the story- it made me wonder if the writer was hearing impaired like many of the characters and didn’t realize filler words were missing
