"Body in the Bay is the third book in the Mark Daniels Mystery Series. And it establishes Justin Maxwell (A/K/A Skip Kadar) as a mystery writer worth serious attention. Trust me, you'll like it!"
- Nick Teranzi, Seattle Book Journal
Retired newspaper reporter Mark Daniels and his wife Sherry, enjoy their annual 4-month escape from Upper Michigan's brutal winter in the Florida Keys.

But when he goes out for a boat ride he discovers a body floating in Florida Bay. He becomes involved in trying to figure out how the body ended up in the Bay and in the process meets several local characters all with reason to see the victim dead. Mark and Sherry's calm winter vacation on the tropical islands ends up with their lives in danger while Marks chases a murderer through paradise.
