About this ebook

From author Rosalie Spielman comes a coral-ful new mystery! 

Recent graduate Nelly O'Hare was looking forward to studying the picturesque coral reefs of Aloha Lagoon, Hawaii, expecting her new job to be full of sun, surf, and satisfying work. What she wasn't expecting was a pair of arguing professors, an attraction to the resort's hot golf pro, and a totally dysfunctional academic study...ending in murder!

When one of her new bosses is found dead, not only is her ocean study in jeopardy, but the local police are also suddenly asking questions that Nelly doesn't have answers to. Luckily her best friend, Kiki Hepburn, is no stranger to murder investigations, and along with Auntie Akamai and the loud-mouthed Paulie the parrot, she vows to help Nelly find the true killer. From the professor's mousy assistant, to the suspicious man and his weird crabs in the next office, to the impressive ex-wife with a new boyfriend and pampered pooch, there are no shortage of suspects who might have wanted the victim dead. Especially when Nelly discovers that someone seems to have been sabotaging the study findings.

With danger lurking just below the murky surface, Nelly is finding out not everything in Aloha Lagoon is as sunny as it seems. As Nelly closes in on the killer, someone is closing in on Nelly...and if she's not careful, the coral won't be the only thing endangered in Aloha Lagoon!

I had a ton of fun reading The Coral Conspiracy. I met recent college graduate and Kiki’s former roommate and best friend, Nelly O’Hare, who is an intern for a coral reef study. Kiki and Auntie Akami join with Nelly to find the murderer when one of the study’s professors is killed. Nelly also discovers data missing from the study. There is fascinating detail about coral, octopuses and other ocean creatures. This well plotted and fast paced book kept me entertained far too late into the night because I had to discover where all the twists were leading!
