Release Date: September 15, 2026

About The Book:

In the second of the Aria Nevins/Noah Roche mystery series, readers are transported to the high desert of New Mexico and a remote hotel near the Navajo Nation. It’s an international conference for homicide investigators and forensic experts. When Aria arrives to spend the weekend with Noah, they enter their suite and find Chicago detective Creighton Thornberry naked on their bed… with a bullet hole in his forehead. The local police immediately zero in on Noah, who had argued with Thornberry the night before. The police chief, dead-set on pinning this on Noah, arrests him.

Aria is frantic to find the real killer. She’s hopeful when Noah’s Paris team, Anuj Kumar and Tenna Berglof, arrive to uncover the truth, and when they’re joined by a top forensic expert… who happens to be Noah’s old flame. Before the pieces of this puzzle are in place, another violent crime takes place, forcing the team to shift into high gear to uncover the identity of the killer before he kills again.

Book Blurbs:

“Murder at Hotel Gloriosa is a pure delight! It ticks all the boxes for a fast-reading classic crime tale: a remote location (itself almost a character in the book), a cast of law enforcers of all stripes, nefarious wrongdoings and the return of a beloved duo of protagonists, Aria Nevins and Noah Roche (and, of course, their crew!). With Hotel Gloriosa, author Zackheim has worked her typical magic and seamlessly blended an intellectual puzzle mystery with the heart-pounded edge of a thriller. And, as always, she wraps up the whole package with her unique and captivating literary voice. Brava!” Jeffery Deaver, author of the Colter Shaw books, the basis for the hit TV show Tracker

“Victoria Zackheim returns in Murder at Hotel Gloriosa and again her settings and characters come alive in this continuation of her Aria Nevins/Noah Roche series! A definite for mystery lovers everywhere!” Charles Todd, author of the Ian Rutledge and Bess Crawford Mystery Series

“The second in Zackheim’s Aria Nevins/Noah Roche trilogy, Murder at Hotel Gloriosa is a stunner of a mystery.
