Kiwi on a Cloud: Self-published Mystery/Adventure Novel


Perky Debbie McWard, New Zealand adventure travel guide, dodges two former lovers, flirts with a hesitant widower, Gil Rocklin, and copes with raucous investigative reporter, Frank Ferret, among her travelers.

Romances give way to fear, as a tourist is murdered, and another is falsely blamed. Debbie discovers that an indicted Yugoslavian war criminal, Ratac "the Butcher" Bymarovitch, is disguised and hiding among her trampers. But among six possible suspects, who?

The most terrifying question is why, of all the tours in the world, one of the world’s most hunted criminals specifically sought out Debbie’s tour group in which to hide, plot, and murder.

Only Debbie, her friends, and two small children can thwart the Butcher’s killing and his rekindling of the Balkan wars.

Surprises sizzle in Croatia, Slovenia, and New Zealand.

Written by Norm Aspen, Kiwi on a Cloud is a mystery novel published by Xlibris.
