Looking at life in a Bahamian jail for murder, she turns to Ruby for the help she desperately needs.
Ruby knows what it feels like to be set up. She also knows what it’s like to be played. Is this woman telling the truth?
Which one of her rich, envious friends wanted her dead?Or was it someone else completely?
But Ruby has a bad habit of helping other people when barely able to handle troubles of her own: Senator Wishbourne’s briefcase is still missing, the pressure is building, and Ruby’s running out of time.
And this time won’t be any different.
Welcome to the Bahamian world of your new favorite female protagonist—Ruby Steele—replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck.
But there’s one thing she’s good at: capturing your heart.

The Ruby Steele Mystery series begins with ON THE ROCKS (Book #1), a bestseller with over 700 five star reviews—and a free download!
Straight Up (Ruby Steele Cozy Mystery, #4) Reviews
-
Ultimo episodio (per ora?) della serie di Ruby Steele. In effetti, a parte il nuovo caso che le viene chiesto di risolvere da una turista la cui amica è stata accusata di omicidio, essendosi ritrovata a letto con l'amante sgozzato mentre il marito di lei e la moglie di lui erano da altre parti del resort in cui soggiornavano, le altre sottotrame, quelle che costituiscono la trama orizzontale, si risolvono, ma non in maniera definitiva: Mia Gold probabilmente ritiene conclusa la serie ma si lascia aperto uno spiraglio per un eventuale quinto episodio.
Io vado via dalle Bahamas con un certo sollievo: per colpa di Ruby Steele, le isole non mi sono sembrate certo un paradiso, ma un covo dei vizi più sordidi. -
I enjoyed this book 4 in the Ruby Steele series. Ruby is a loveable albeit flawed character who really wants to help everyone, even when things in her own life are complicated. Interesting setting and nicely paced. Fast, easy read. Can’t wait for the next Ruby Steele adventure.

Love me a good “Stephanie Plum-like” story!
