This set includes books 4-6 of the Raina Sun Mystery Series. For readers who like cozy mysteries, quirky characters, a dash of humor, and Chinese-American culture.
Balmy Darlings and Deaths
Raina Sun is cashing in a gift certificate for a free hairstyle from the town's premier beauty salon and day spa. Life is on the up-and-upβuntil she finds an attacker holding her best friend in a headlock outside the treatment rooms. When the attacker ends up six feet under, her best friend becomes the prime suspect. Raina summons her sleuthing skills to jump full-tilt into this murder investigation to clear her best friend's name. With her stink-bomb-toting grandma and the geriatric posse, she soon discovers death is easy, and it's the living that kills to protect the dead.
Sunny Mates and Murders
Raina Sun thought being a fake fiancΓ©e to an acquaintance would get her closer to her deceased grandfather's journal. But instead, she winds up cloistered in an elegant country estate, surrounded by members of the Nine Dragons Triad, a multi-generational criminal organization. When the dead body of a rival lands in her lap, Raina must prove her fake fiancΓ©'s innocence. Amid the hostile triad members, could she find the conniving killer before she becomes the next victim? And will the secret in the journal come to light?
Murky Passions and Scandals
After Raina Sun witnesses a kidnapping, the victim shows up unharmed and claims nothing happened. The case grows even murkier when Raina's client, the husband of the supposed victim, is found dead at the old pumpkin patch, the site for a contentious new mall development. Raina's new boss seems more worried about collecting their fee than seeking justice for the deceased. Can Raina see her way clear to the end, or will a storm come crashing down when the murderer realizes she's hot on the trail?
