Resumen del Editor

When recently divorced Chloe Canton is gifted her grandmother’s house in Bermuda in her will, it seems a perfect time for a fresh start. Her chance at paradise comes with a rundown business, a neighbour who is putting pressure on her to sell up for development and another who quickly makes herself comfortable in Chloe’s house. Chloe discovers a dead body on the local riding trail soon after she arrives and finds herself dragged into a murder investigation. With tensions rising and island gossip to contend with, as well as a murder in their midst, will Chloe stick it out and help solve the case, or will paradise turn out to be too hot to handle?

Hmmmmm....

This book moves at a slower pace than I'm used to but things were happening and I wanted to continue on. The fact that it takes place on the island of Bermuda is a plus. I'm glad I stuck with the book - not quite a cozy mystery but not the murder and mayhem either. I would definitely read another book if this is a series. I enjoyed the descriptions of Bermuda and all in all it was a pretty good story. The main character is finding her way at 50 years old and she is a likable character and I like that while she has some baggage the author keeps her moving forward and it's a positive experience to have a strong, older female lead that isn't whiny.

Not for me

I gave tis book a try because it seemed like it would be good. I didn't connect with the characters and lost interest in the book. I returned it.
