Isla Mysteries 1-5 recommended for travelers and mystery lovers!

Recommends it for: travelers, mystery lovers
If you can’t get away to a tiny island in the Caribbean, reading books set on the island is the next best thing. Here’s a Kindle boxed set of five books describing life on Isla Mujeres off the Yucatan peninsula and also providing some good mystery stories.
Tropical paradise? Check.
Pirates and buried treasure? Check.
Two 30-ish women looking for the treasure while being shadowed by mysterious men? Check.
Island men coming to the aid of the two damsels in distress? Check.
Romance? Check, check.
A loveable stray dog that helps solve the mysteries? Check.
A happy ending? Of course.

The five books are the work of Canadian author Lynda L. Lock who retired to the island with her husband and began publishing the series in 2016. 
As a first-time novelist, her plots and character development improved with each of the books. One thing that remained constant throughout the series was her attention to details in describing places and people and events and customs on the island.
If you close your eyes and let your mind wander you can imagine being there with her characters on the soft sand and in the small beach restaurant where the two women work shifts. 
Overall, it’s easy reading and will probably make you look forward to her next book. I am. 



Anticipated launch date for Twisted Isla is May 2020
