In Sharyn Bradford Lunn’s exhilarating, layered mystery, Deep Blue Death (Jami Laramie Mysteries Book 1), a wreck site off the coast of Western Australia turns into a crime scene involving multiple murders and the theft of precious artifacts. When Jami Laramie is accepted as a volunteer diver for the Seaclaim salvage team in Australia, she has only one thing in mind: to increase her skill and knowledge. She cannot wait to join the team salvaging the artifacts from the Zuytwyck, the Dutch ship that sank in 1620. On arrival, Jami learns about her parents’ impending divorce from her mother in Colorado. The news and her attraction to a fellow diver threaten to overwhelm her. In addition, she struggles to trust Cole and her teammates as the mystery of the missing artifacts remains unsolved.
Sharyn Bradford Lunn has authored an atmospheric murder mystery rich in romance, suspense, and marine archaeological detail. Through its memorable heroine, the story includes a thought-provoking exploration of family shifts and their impact on familial relationships. Jami and Cole’s enemies-to-lovers romance is beautifully portrayed. Both characters are complex with intriguing, authentic personalities. There are multiple humorous scenes throughout the story, which I enjoyed, and exciting conversations about the mystery, which I found captivating. Secondary characters who include other Seaclaim team members, are also compelling. Deep Blue Death by Sharyn Bradford Lunn is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries. Readers will enjoy the story’s remarkable setting, soul-stirring romance, fascinating characters, and continuous intrigue.
