Baby Boomer Mysteries

Since January 1, 2006, Baby Boomers are turning 60 at the rate of 8,000 a day, and coming face to face with how to define, and re-define, the “golden” years. Being part of this national phenomenon inspired Susan Santangelo to write this mystery series.The first book, Retirement Can Be Murder, tackles the potential emotional impact of retirement on Baby Boomer couples.

Retirement Can Be Murder introduces Jim and Carol Andrews, a typical Baby Boomer couple. The book is a tongue-in-cheek look at the couple’s interaction as Carol obsesses about Jim’s upcoming retirement and its potential implications for her.
