Publisher's summary

Whitney Dagner is your tour guide to a Pacific paradise that's to die for - only to find it's a place people are also willing to kill for - in Gabby Allan's Much Ado About Nauticaling, first in the Whit and Whiskers Mystery series.

After far too many years in the Los Angeles corporate world, Whitney Dagner has come home to Santa Catalina Island off the California coast to help her brother Nick run Nautically Yours, the family tourism business. Between gift shop shifts selling all manner of T-shirts and tchotchkes and keeping her feline Whiskers in fine fettle, she pilots the Sea Bounder, a glass-bottom boat showing tourists the underwater sights of aquatic plants, marine life - and a murder victim?

The self-proclaimed "Master of the Island", Jules Tisdale was a wealthy man with business interests throughout Catalina who was about to be honored as Person of the Year before someone strangled him with his own tie and tossed his body into the water. That someone appears to be Nick, who had a raw deal from Jules and no alibi the night of his murder. To clear her brother's name, Whit will have to investigate Jules' shady associates and not exactly grief-stricken family members - with the unwelcome help of Felix Ramirez, police diver and Whit's ex-boyfriend who's looking to rekindle their relationship.

Delightful

If you are looking for an easy read to relax into, with friendly and some quirky characters, a marvelous location, and a decent mystery, look no further. The setting - a delightful island where residents travel by foot, golf cart, or boat; the family business - a glass-bottomed boat; and perhaps a hint of romance to come, what more could you ask? I look forward to relaxing with the next book in this series.

So much Suspense!

So going in, I wasn't entirely sure what I would be getting out of this book. Let me tell you I was hooked, lined, and sunk just 2 chapters in! Can't wait to dive into book 2 and see what Whitney is up to.
