Twenty-year old luxury cruise ship waiter Li Johnson is used to the
humiliation of trying to satisfy entitled rich jerk customers and a
sadistic supervisor, but his problems get even bigger when he finds a
passenger sunburned to death on the Sunbathing Deck. Now Li has to catch
a murderer before he's framed for the crime or worse, loses his crappy
job...
For twenty-year-old Li Johnson, a job as a cruise ship waiter was
supposed to be a way to get over his father's death and earn enough
money to go back to college. Instead, Li is struggling to maintain his
sanity while coping with the demands of a sadistic maitre d' and a
boatload of entitled rich jerk passengers. Li just wants to keep his
head down and survive his job from hell, but when he finds a passenger
sunburned to a crisp on the Sunbathing Deck, something about the scene
just doesn't add up. Before he knows it, Li is on the track of a
murderer and if Li doesn't find the real killer soon, he might just get
framed for the crime -- or worse, lose his crappy job.
A brand-new classic in the amateur detective genre, Sunny Side Up is a
traditional murder mystery for the 21st century, with a glamorous
setting, a gallery of suspects, clues that will keep readers guessing to
the last page, and a delightful new hero in Li Johnson, the millennial
minimum wage manhunter, who brings sleuthing to the service economy.
