This is the third book in the Miss Demeanor Suspense Series and I am really enjoying to get to know the women in this detective series.

Maile Kuhiwinui is having trouble settling into Seattle after just moving from Hawaii. She finds she is homesick and is trouble finding cases but all of that is just about to change.

Maile finds herself no longer missing Hawaiian food after finding a food truck run by Hawaiian Kalama Haleamau. Then she gets herself a case involving the supposed suicide of ballet dancer Floriano Garcia.

As Maile investigates more she finds her own personal life with Kalama being intertwined into the case and she realizes she may need to ask the girls for some help. Will Maile find the truth about Floriano's death before her own life is on the line?

I really enjoyed this story as it touched on the trouble Maile was having settling into Seattle and that moves are not always easy. This book really made Maile easy to relate to and you really want her to succeed with her case and her personal life!

Great story and such a great series!

A taste of Hawaii in the streets of Seattle…

What do you get when you combine a Hawaiian food truck owned by the sexy, Kalama Haleamau. Maile Kuhiwinui’s love for the cuisine of the home she left behind to start a P.I. firm in Seattle, and a murdered Ballet dancer? Choreographed Crime. For Ms. Marilla’s first venture into romantic suspense, this is a standing ovation.

Kudos Ms. Marilla, you had me guessing ‘who-done-it’ until the murderer was revealed.
