In this action mystery thriller series by #1 bestseller Mia Gold (whose books have over 5,000 five star ratings ), Ruby Steele, 30, ex-MMA fighter, hides from the world as a bartender in the Bahamas, knowing too many deadly secrets, running from her past and from those who want her dead. But when a murder crosses her path, Ruby will have to tap her fighting skills and re-enter a seedy underworld to solve the crime and catch a deadly killer—before she becomes his next target…

 

The MIA GOLD series offers a wild action-packed ride in a page-turning mystery/thriller series, featuring an unusual female sleuth who is as brilliant and resourceful as she is deadly. Welcome to the dark yet endearing Bahamian world of Ruby Steele, replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck. But she will endear herself to you long after you've put the book down.

Future books in the series are also available!

 

“I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The author devised some characters that I found very interesting. The protagonist in particular was a wonderfully flawed character. The setting of the story was a great choice also. I found the story very compelling.”

Ratings and reviews

Very good. Interesting story, character and locations. Well written. Learn some about the sad, seedy side of life and how desperate some people can be. While there are still others who can and do choose truth and right over might and money. Highly recommend.

A good read with twists and turns as expected. Some were too obvious and you could predict them. Yet, overall intriguing content with not so typical details.

AMAZING...I enjoyed this audiobook from beginning to the end. I really liked the character Ruby. In between all difficult conditions she survives every storm because she is courageous. When Ruby says "I can handle myself", than she actually does that. I can say that she is the most strongest female character I read till date. I am looking forward to read more from Mia Gold.
