Fun read. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. A quick and fun read! Sweeps you up and takes you away to a white beach tropical island and plunges the reader into a fast-paced murder mystery! Perfect read for the cottage or beach. Look forward to the next installment. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This is a Rapid Reads selection from Orca Books so it was a quick read. This line of books is designed to be read by adults who are learning to read English. I think it would be very appropriate for that audience.Canadian paramedic Ashley Grant has taken a one-year contract on a tiny Caribbean island. She gets thrown in from the beginning when her ride from the airport has to go to the scene of a drowning death. The dead man's daughter is a former classmate of Ashley's and she is convinced that her stepmother killed her father. She asks Ashley to help her prove it. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I've read some of Delany's mysteries set in Canada, and they are basically a mix of police procedural and cosy. This book branches out into new territory, the Caribbean, with a medic escaping Toronto as her protagonist.This is a VERY light book, the kind my sister might read 'standing on one leg' as she once put it, in the bookstore. One quirk. Delany's character does not mention race or skin color until it's important to the denouement, 90 pages or more into the book (at least in the ER printing). All of a sudden people have different skin tones because it provides motive. One star for getting the words in the right order, and for a very easy read while waiting for your plane. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Fiction.
Mystery.
HTML: When paramedic Ashley Grant finds her boyfriend in bed with another woman, she moves out of her house (okay, his house), quits her job and takes a new one in a tiny Caribbean country, the Victoria and Albert Islands. Ashley is thrown into the deep end when she arrives. Her new colleague picks her up at the airport in the island's only ambulance, which is called to the discovery of a body floating off the beach at the exclusive Club Louisa. The body is that of a man vacationing with his daughter and glamorous new wife. Coincidentally, Sally, the daughter of the dead man, recognizes Ashley from high school. She is convinced that her stepmother killed her father and begs Ashley to help her prove it. Before she can even unpack her bags or enjoy the view from her ocean-side apartment, Ashley is unwittingly dragged into a murder investigation. .Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
