Rhinestones, feathers, and murder make for a fun cruise when Galactic Cruise Lines presents BALLROOM. GCL's first ever dance competition takes a turn for the morbid when Associate Cruise Director Kat Mitchell finds one of the dancers dangling from the ceiling like a disco ball. Ignoring the warning she receives, she ends up at the center of the investigation and in the crosshairs of a hitman.
Death by Ballroom is the first book in Jo Carey's Galactic Cruise Lines Series. 203 pages.
Galactic Cruise Lines Cozy Mysteries
Jo Carey grew up in the Midwest but her curiosity and gypsy-spirit has kept her on the move. She's lived in eight US states and spent three years living in Ireland. She has always loved creature movies, so creatures and bugs often show up in her books.
Jo, a former information security compliance guru, writes fast-paced, character-driven stories in a variety of genres from medical thrillers to space operas and cozy mysteries. Her novels are filled with humor, romance, and sometimes creatures or aliens, or maybe even all of the above. She often builds her stories around a strong female lead character surrounded by plenty of hunky male heroes.
Jo's been under fire on a golf course and climbed out the roof of an elevator in the Netherlands. Life hasn't been boring. Now residing in Texas, setting often plays a huge role in her stories. Jo was intrigued by the League of Planetary Systems, a world her husband, Frank, created for his science fiction books, and she now writes mysteries and other types of tales sets in that world. Jo was bitten by a cat, a fire ant, and a snake, before succumbing to the bite of the writing bug.
