4.7 out of 5 stars 249 ratings

A murdered mistress. A wrongful arrest. Can Poe and Alana take down a killer from both sides of the law?

Edgar Allan "Poe" Rutherford is out of the private investigator game. He couldn't stand to take another case after his last one nearly killed his wife. When he's accused of murdering his supposed mistress, he's forced back into a familiar role to prove his innocence. But can he do it from behind bars?

Alana Hu knows she's too skilled of a detective for Poe to cheat and kill behind her back. But when her department forbids her from finding out who set him up, she decides to go rogue. After all, nobody messes with her man without answering to her…

When Poe and Alana discover troubling evidence that points to larger forces at play, catching the real killer may just take a tag-team effort…

Sunset Dead is the sixth standalone novel in the gripping Murder on Maui mystery series. If you like page-turning twists, colorful characters, and a splash of humor, then you'll love Robert W. Stephens' tropical thriller.

    Wow and wow. This may have been my favorite yet. I had a feeling about the captain, though. I'm glad everything was resolved. Now to the next one!

    This was a really good book. I liked having a point of view from both Poe & Alana. I've read all the books in the series prior to this one, very entertaining.

    The story, as usual, was well written. The new "Poe Perspective/Alan Perspective" is different, but works. The reason I dropped from a 5* to a 4* is because the author needs a real editor. This was obviously "spell-checked" resulting in MANY wrong words/ wrong spellings. I am admittedly a grammar fanatic and this was a significant distraction ! However, I do recommend this book to others.

    I must admit, I didn't like how this one started. Mostly because I was worried for our hero, but also it took a little to get used the new style of writing some of the chapters from Alana's perspective. Within 50-100 pages though, not only got used to it, but I liked it. Not saying I would want that in every one of these books, but it worked for this one, and it was kinda nice to get into Alana 's mind a little

    Wow! This is the sixth Edgar Allan "Poe" Rutherford book and probably the best. The last two were great but this was even better. The story was told from the perspective of both Poe and Alana (each chapter was one or the other narrating their thoughts and movements). It really gave the reader an insight to what was happening.

    As usual it was well written (a few typos) with great characters, both good and bad. I enjoy the "Poe" stories and hope they continue. Of course, the setting in Maui doesn't hurt either. Well done.

    Very entertaining read. The perspective angle was an interesting way to see each character handle the same events with different takes on the happenings.

    I've enjoyed all of the Poe books! Actually reading this one on Maui, so it's always fun to read about all the familiar locations. The only thing keeping it from being 5 stars is having Alana's perspective constantly. Here or there would be fine but it's too much in my opinion.
    That and one plot error, nothing big, but distracting.
