For fans of Elin Hilderbrand, Liane Moriarty, and Kristin Hannah — four complete Caribbean mysteries, one haunted estate, one woman who refuses to stay broken.Attorney Katie Connell has the worst week of her career on live television, flies to the U.S. Virgin Islands to grieve in private, and ends up buying a haunted plantation estate on impulse. Estate Annalise is beautiful and broken — inhabited by a jumbie, a Caribbean spirit, with strong opinions about who belongs. Katie is starting to believe it.The Katie Connell Box Set collects all four novels in Pamela Fagan Hutchins’ beloved series. Across four complete books, Katie investigates her parents’ cold-case murder, falls in love at exactly the wrong moment, tracks her missing husband across three countries in a rescue thriller that spans the Caribbean, and clears her own name when a corpse ruins her honeymoon and the St. Marcos police decide she’s their best suspect.These are mystery-thrillers with soul and heat — propulsive plots, emotionally specific characters, and Caribbean settings rendered with the authenticity of an author who actually lived on St. Croix. The islands are not a backdrop. They are a character. Pamela Fagan Hutchins knows them from the inside: the warmth, the wildness, the beauty that doesn’t fully yield to outsiders, and the secrets the water keeps.The series is complete with four books. Start with Saving Grace — and clear your weekend. Binge on with Leaving Annalise, Finding Harmony, and Seeking Felicity.She came to the islands to fall apart. Four books later, she’s still there — and the islands are still not done with her.Next up in the WDKY box set series: The Emily Bernal Series!What readers are saying:“Unputdownable.”“Full of heart, humor, vivid characters, and suspense.”“Hutchins is a master of tension.”“Intriguing mystery… captivating romance.”“Everything shines: the plot, the characters, and the writing.”“Murder has never been so much fun!”
