Mississippi Queen: A Cozy Mystery with Romance

The Grace Harper Cozy Mysteries with Romance Series Book 4

De: R.F. Price

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Grace Harper swore she was only passing through. But when a gambler vanishes from the glittering riverboat Mississippi Queen in sleepy Port Belle, Mississippi, the current pulls her in again.

Locals call it an accident—just another man who bet too much and lost. Grace sees something else in their careful smiles and matching stories. The riverboat may sparkle under lantern light, but beneath those polished decks lie secrets darker than the water at midnight.

With her loyal hound, Duke, at her side and a quiet alliance with the missing man’s brother—a widowed ex–riverboat captain—Grace follows a trail of half-truths, hush money, and Southern charm that cuts both ways. When the storm finally breaks, she’ll learn that every river carries what people try to bury—and some truths refuse to stay submerged.

Mississippi Queen is a cozy mystery with romance—clean, suspenseful, and deeply human—perfect for readers who love small-town mystery series, female sleuths, and slow-burn emotional tension.

• Tone: Atmospheric, Southern, and suspenseful (PG-13; no graphic content).
