Sex on Murder Island

“A genius and my hero—there is truly nothing Jo Firestone cannot do.”—Taylor Tomlinson

“A triumph of genre f***ery. The kind of book that makes you laugh out loud on the subway, unashamed to be reading a book with both SEX and MURDER on the cover in huge print … Jo Firestone once again proves that not only is she an expert comedian, but she can spin a genuine mystery tale that has you completely unsure of what is going to happen next, in the best way possible.”—Ana Gasteyer

“Murder on Sex Island [is] a delightful, sidesplitting satire of the reality TV industry as seen from the perspective of Luella van Horn, the crime-solving alter ego of a Staten Island social worker named Marie Jones. The sequel, Sex on Murder Island, brings Luella back a few months after her first sleuthing triumph … Let’s just say I’ve never read a more wholesome novel involving multiple sex parties. She’ll catch the killer, but the book shines brightest in its depiction of a lonely woman searching for real friends.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Do you love a good murder mystery? Then make sure you pick up Sex on Murder Island by Jo Firestone.”—Parade

“For readers who prefer to cackle wickedly, Jo Firestone’s Sex on Murder Island could be just the ticket. A sequel to the comedian’s Murder on Sex Island, the new book promises a similar blend of sex, murder, and completely inappropriate humor.”—The Boston Globe

“Fast-paced fun that will appeal to fans of Elle Cosimano’s Finlay Donovan and Jesse Q. Sutanto’s Meddelin Chan.”—Library Journal, starred review

“Wild, wacky … somehow even funnier than her first book [and] perfectly over-the-top. Let’s hope there’s a third Luella adventure coming soon… . A wonderfully weird mystery.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Hilarious … Sexy waiters, spooky butlers, and a kinky boat pilot named Betsy all support Luella’s madcap murder investigation. For sheer laughs, this beats the previous book, and readers will hope to encounter the colorful cast of sidekicks in future installments. It’s a riot.”—Publishers Weekly
