MURDER ON SEX ISLAND
A Luella Van Horn Mystery
A sexy reality show. A missing contestant. A one-of-a-kind detective.
When a cast member goes missing from the hit reality show Sex Island, producers hire detective Luella van Horn to go undercover as a contestant and solve the case. What the producers don't know is that the enigmatic Luella van Horn is actually a woman named Marie Jones, a divorced exsocial worker from Staten Island attempting to lead a double life as a private eye. The local press couldn't get enough of Luella . . . until she horribly bungled her last case and a murderer went free.
Unable to resist the opportunity to be a part of her favorite trashy TV show, travel to a remote island, and embark on a journey for redemption, Marie-as-Luella takes the case. But the more she learns about Sex Island's dark underbelly, the harder it gets to make it out alive. She encounters shady producers, sleazy directors, contestants willing to do whatever it takes to win the $100,000 grand prizeand the dead body of the show's missing fan-favorite in her bathtub.
Will she find the killer? Will she find herself? Will she find . . . love?
Find out now, in Sex Island's most dramatic season yet.
Jo Firestone is a comedian whose work can be seen on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Joe Pera Talks With You, High Maintenance, Shrill, and more. She can be heard on Maximum Fun's Dr. Gameshow, a podcast she co-hosts with Manolo Moreno, and Comedy Central's Everyday Decisions, a podcast she hosts all alone.

Her special, Good Timing with Jo Firestone, featuring 16 senior citizens from her online comedy class, is out now on Peacock.
