Pineapple Circus: Book 13
Now in the center ring... murder!
Newly-minted private detective Charlotte Morgan, resident orphan of the Pineapple Port 55+ community, discovers she might not be an orphan after all. Stunned by the news, she distracts herself with a cat burglar who left a smear of make-upped whiskers on a sliding glass door, and a path straight to "Clown Town" a retirement community for retired circus performers. When a fortune-teller doesn't see her own death in the cards, Charlotte's burglary becomes a murder investigation!
"This was the first Pineapple Cove mystery I have read, and I was pleasantly surprised. That plot was interesting and fast-paced. Characters were well-developed, and there were many subplots to add to the fun. I enjoyed it, and now plan to read books 1 to 12!" - Amazon Reader ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Charlotte's neighborhood moms, Mariska and Darla, can't help with this one. They're busy infiltrating an underground golf cart racing ring, led by a shady operator and her toady sidekick...
When another circus performer falls victim to the Big Top Killer and Stephanie goes missing, Charlotte finds herself walking a highwire of danger...this killer isn't clowning around!
WARNING! Fans of the series will be particularly shocked by the breathless ending! (though every book can be read as a standalone).
Pineapple Port Mysteries by Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Amy Vansant, is a funny, clean, and gore-free small-town, female amateur sleuth series, but with all the pulse-pounding excitement of a detective thriller.
Mystery Readers love Pineapple Circus and The Pineapple Port Series:
"Great story as always from this author. Lots of action and mystery along with big doses of humor throughout. I think this might be the best Pineapple Port book yet! Loved it." - Amazon Reader ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I enjoy her books so much. Each book is better than the last. I like the way she portrays the older ladies as funny rather than silly as so many writers in the cozy series do. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series." - Amazon Reader ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Lots & lots of surprises & twists in this one. Started & couldn’t put it down." - Amazon Reader ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Hilarious as usual - Pineapple Circus is definitely in my top three favorites for this series. It's hilarious, as usual, ties together several different stories to fill in the past for overlapping characters, and still has all the usual Pineapple Port insanity and crazy outcomes. Ms. Vansant has been my favorite author since I read one of her books for the first time, and Circus solidifies that sentiment yet again!
