A Twisted Web of Intrigue

Cold Day in Paradise is a haunting mystery novel that weaves a complex web of intrigue. It begins in the picturesque paradise of St. Maarten, a Caribbean island renowned for its pristine beaches and vibrant culture. But beneath this idyllic facade lies a sinister undercurrent that threatens to unravel the lives of two seemingly ordinary tourists.

As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that nothing is as it seems. A seemingly random encounter between the two tourists, Abby and Germaine, quickly spirals into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. As they delve deeper into the island's hidden secrets, they uncover a web of deceit, betrayal, and murder.

Unraveling the Enigma

At the heart of Cold Day in Paradise lies a cast of enigmatic characters. Abby, a young American woman seeking solace after a traumatic past, finds herself drawn into a world of danger. Germaine, a charming and enigmatic Frenchman, becomes her unlikely ally, but his motives remain shrouded in mystery.

As Abby and Germaine's investigation progresses, they encounter a cast of suspects, each with their own secrets and hidden agendas. There's the wealthy and influential businessman, the seductive hotel owner, and the elusive island guide. Every interaction becomes a potential clue, every encounter a threat.

Paradise Lost

The setting of Cold Day in Paradise is as captivating as the story itself. St. Maarten, with its swaying palm trees, turquoise waters, and vibrant nightlife, provides a stark contrast to the darkness that unfolds within.
