Karina Bartow and Undercover Babymoon

Author Karina Bartow with her book Undercover Babymoon and Daily’s Bahama Mama

About the Book: Most mothers-to-be spend their pregnancy leafing through baby names and shopping for nursery furniture. Minka Avery spends hers trying to hunt down a murderer on the open seas.

Minka’s promotion to Orlando PD’s homicide department has some bumps at first, including her growing baby bump. Just as she and her partner begin to hit their stride, Logan Baris’s suspicious death baffles them. The investigation leads the detectives to believe he had a hand in a shady operation, but the cruise ship worker’s troubles seem to voyage into the ocean blues with him.

After they meet up with some dead ends on land, Minka convinces her partner and his wife to join her and her husband to embark on a covert investigation on the ship. Will they be able to uncover whatever scheme is underway on the vessel? Or will the choppy waves of personal drama make it run ashore?

About the Beverage: Karina says “In Undercover Babymoon, Detective Minka Avery sets off on a Caribbean cruise to investigate the death of a crew member. One of the ports of call is Nassau, Bahamas, and Minka is obviously a mama-to-be, making Bahama Mama the perfect complement to the mystery. Of course, expectant mamas like Minka would opt for the non-alcoholic version!”

About the Author: Karina Bartow hails from Northern Ohio. Though born with Cerebral Palsy, she’s never allowed her disability to define her. Rather, she’s used her experiences to breathe life into characters who have physical limitations but, like her, are determined not to let them stand in the way of the life they want. Her works include "Husband in Hiding," "Forgetting My Way Back to You," "Brother of Interest," "Wrong Line, Right Connection," "Accidental Allies,” and “Undercover Babymoon.” She may only be able to type with one hand, but she writes wholeheartedly!

UNDERCOVER BABYMOON is available at all major online bookstores.
