Cozy Mystery, Book 6

Murder, Mayhem, and Mixed Doubles—Welcome to the Pickleball Palace.

When the quirky residents of the Tucson Valley Retirement Community pack their paddles and hit the road for a major pickleball tournament in Mesa, Arizona, Rosi reluctantly agrees to partner up with her competitive, gossip-loving mom. Their odds of winning? Slim. Their chances of surviving a drama-free weekend? Zero.

The tournament takes a dark turn before the first serve when a prominent figure in the pro pickleball world turns up dead—under suspiciously “accidental” circumstances. Rosi’s curiosity spikes faster than a cross-court slam, and soon she’s neck-deep in secrets, rivalries, and court-side conspiracies.

From bitter tennis pros and bickering neighbors to overly-invested fans with shady motives, everyone at The Pickleball Palace seems to be hiding something. As Rosi digs deeper, the line between friendly competition and foul play gets dangerously blurry.

Can Rosi uncover the truth before the final match—or will her sleuthing sabotage her mom’s big weekend and put them both in the line of fire?

The books each contain a full, separate murder and can be listened to out of order, but the character arcs of the characters are more fully enjoyed if the books are listened to in order.
