For Duchess Jacqueline, death doesn't take a vacation.

Three months after her wedding, Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier is finally taking a well-deserved break. With tensions high among the duchies, she leaves Saphire under the cover of night, heading to the deserts of Kwatalar with her husband and friends. At Ogdam Oasis, Jax thinks she has the perfect romantic getaway planned.
However, she soon stumbles upon a dead body hanging from the greenhouse rafters. Baffled by the guest's sudden suicide, Jax's past run-ins with death help her uncover a shocking truth: the guest was murdered. It's up to Jax, Perry, and their friends to reveal what the desert sands have long kept buried.
A new era of Duchess Jacqueline's reign is here in Paradise Plagued, Book Six in the Court of Mystery series.
