(HENRIE O MYSTERY) Henrietta O'Dwyer Collins, better known as "Henrie O", has experienced much sadness and loss in her life - yet nothing more tragic than the sudden death six years ago of her husband, Richard, on Kauai. Then, on a brisk March morning, a package arrives by courier that shatters her fragile peace of mind - a chilling message that claims Richard's fatal fall from a towering island cliff was no accident. It was murder. It is news that enrages the normally self-contained Henrie O, and creates a summons she cannot ignore. She follows cryptic clues and her infallible instincts to a secret-shrouded tropic Eden -- a lush and verdant Pacific paradise where giant palm fronds hide evil deeds from inquisitive eyes and the soft, salt-scented ocean breeze whispers of treachery and death.

"It took me a little while to get into this book, but once I got into it, it was hard to put down! I will definitely have to read more of this author's works. :)"

“Hart fans will find plenty to like in this latest installment in a popular series.”
— Booklist“Death in Paradise is a sterling example of why cozy mysteries, with the emphasis mainly on the puzzle, remain a perennial favorite. Hart is a master plotter, and in this stark tale, her murderous muse shines brightly. Readers will be kept guessing throughout the book until the satisfying, surprising conclusion.”

— Cynthia, 11/19/2013" Not a favourite series of mine. I didn't particularly like Henrie O. I didn't really care if they figured out who the killer was as everyone seemed rich and bratty. "
— Jenn, 7/15/2013" B; Didn't like as well as the Death on Demand series. Would give it another try, but no rush. Maybe it's because I did the audio version instead of traditional. "
— Cathy, 4/3/2013" This character seems to lack passion for anything except what concerns her. I keep hoping the series will improve. The first book in the series was really enjoyable. So, I'll keep plodding along with each book... "
— Terri, 1/23/2013" I wasn't all that interested in the plot of this book for some odd reason. I did care for the characters involved. "
— Jeanette, 1/3/2013" Wow. What a great mystery. I am now a full-fledged Carolyn Hart fan. "
— Susan, 9/22/2012" Cozy mysteries dealing with reporter Henrie O. "
— Vicky, 8/1/2012" The Henrie O books are always fun light reading - and give us hope that we can be active and clever as we get older! "
