Addie Gorsky Mysteries
Visit Wicked Florida with PI Addie Gorsky
Murder in Mystic Cove
When a retirement community’s most despised resident is found dead in his tricked-out golf cart, Addie Gorsky springs into action!
Guarding the manicured wilds of Florida's most exclusive retirement village might seem dull to a former homicide cop. But Addie Gorsky was tired of dodging bullets in Baltimore. After all, she’d moved to Florida to look after her father, not chase criminals. Her new job as Mystic Cove security chief is a welcome change from all the big-city mayhem.
But when Mystic Cove's most hated resident turns up with a bullet in his head, Addie can't resist digging. While the local cops focus on the unhappy wife, Addie knows there's more to the story. Only the deeper she digs, the more questions turn up.
Surrounded by secretive, close-mouthed residents, Addie soon finds herself caught in a mystery as tangled as cypress roots. And directly in the sights of a calculating killer who is about to kill again.
Death at China Rose

| Book 2 |
In this swamp of murder and deceit, no one is safe!
Back in the day, China Rose Fish Camp was a popular vacation spot. But these days the only regular visitors are the mosquitoes and gators–especially the fifteen-foot bull gator the locals call Big Ben.
When the owner of China Rose is found beaten to death, PI Addie Gorsky takes on the case. Though the cops believe the bloody scene suggests a random act of violence, Addie suspects the crime is connected to the disappearance of a young woman from China Rose eleven years ago.
But even Addie's surprised at how deep the roots of this murder go. All the way back to the time of wily pirates and proud conquistadors, and the trove of treasure that legend claims is still buried in this backwater.
Addie dives headfirst into the wild heart of China Rose, surrounded by toothy gators, killer bees and gaping cottonmouths. But these predators pale to the two-legged killer Addie is hunting. . . and who soon begins hunting her.

Even though Elena's death appears to result from a severe allergic reaction, the family asks PI Addie Gorsky to investigate. Though still mourning her father's death, Addie takes the case. With its unsavory reputation, Addie expects to find evidence of neglect or malpractice, not murder.
But the inconsistencies surrounding Elena's death start piling up, with the tight-lipped and paranoid staff blocking the investigation at every turn. After a second murder, Addie finds herself locked in a deadly chess match with an unseen opponent. A grandmaster of murder who is always one step ahead.
