Cottage Keys & a Corpse: A Villages Cozy Mystery
by M.C. Needleton

Welcome to The Villages—Florida’s sunniest retirement paradise…where the margaritas are strong, the golf carts are faster than you’d think, and the gossip is deadlier than the humidity.

Maggie and Bert Miller traded the rainy Pacific Northwest for palm trees, pickleball, and what was supposed to be their “forever vacation.” But when they unlock the door to their dream cottage, they don’t just find sunshine—they find a corpse on the fainting couch.

Suddenly, they’re not just retirees. They’re suspects.

As bodies keep turning up in the most inconvenient places—poolside, potlucks, and even the quilting circle—Maggie and Bert are pulled into a swirl of secrets involving suspicious neighbors, glitter-bombed golf carts, a missing iguana mascot, and an ambitious fitness club with a deadly streak. Between tangos gone wrong, margarita mayhem, and more casseroles than they can politely decline, this amateur sleuthing couple has to solve the case before “Florida fun” becomes “Florida felony.”

Full of laugh-out-loud moments, quirky characters, and a dose of sunshine-soaked suspense, Cottage Keys & a Corpse is the first in the Villages Cozy Mystery series—perfect for fans of wry humor, charming small-town settings, and mysteries with just the right twist of lime.

Pull up a rocker, pour yourself a drink, and get ready to meet your new favorite sleuths. Retirement has never been this thrilling…or this funny.
