“Another fun, clever mystery in the Florida sun, with my favourite cast of characters—more please!” —Susi Holliday, author of The Hike“I love this series, which is a gripping marriage of British police procedural and sunny, beach side Florida living. Steph Broadribb shows us that retirement is simply the start of a new chapter and there's a great mystery too for the reader to get their teeth into. Recommended.” —Sinead Crowley, author of The Belladonna Maze“The Retired Detectives feel like old friends you love spending time with and I cannot get enough of them. A multi-layered mystery, full of heart and intrigue. I didn't want it to end.” —Marion Todd, author of the DI Clare Mackay series“In Death on the Beach, Steph Broadribb once again convenes her team of indefatigable retirement home heroes, this time to tackle the senseless murder of a local realtor. The plot zips along, with plenty of blind alleys and dark turns along the way. Broadribb’s team of retired former detectives are on top form, navigating murders and emotional setbacks with equal aplomb. Will surely please fans of The Thursday Murder Club series.” —Vaseem Khan, author of the Malabar House series and the Baby Ganesh Agency series
