Publisher's summary

Her old high school crush has cleaned up his act...

Anne Hardaway is a reluctant expert on house-cleaning, horticulture, and pet care, who specializes in making some of the country's most famous how-to writers look good in print. But when her long-ago high school crush is found dead in their New Jersey shore hometown, Anne has no idea "how to" find out the truth.

By washing up on shore...

When Tigger Mills returned home to archly conservative, devoutly religious Oceanside Heights, no one was happy to see him. Tigger left 20 years ago, after being accused of setting fire to an old hotel that killed the owner's little girl. Though he always maintained his innocence, no one believed him - except then teenager Anne Hardaway.

After Tigger's lifeless body is pulled from the surf, everyone but Anne assumes it was suicide. Now, this woman with a relentless knack for research makes it her mission to tackle the town's closed minds, curious suspicions, and ancient lies to dredge the past and uncover a 20-year-old motive for present-day murder.

Loved it.

The book was the first i have read by this author. I love the story line and it kept me entertained throughout. It had twist and turns when it came down to who the murderer was. I requested this book as a gift i exchange for an honest review. I would definitely do more in this series.

The narrator did a great job with the characters.

Good

Anne had a crush on a boy in high school has now return, because of a death threat he tells her. They still think he was involved in the accident twenty years ago. Next morning he is floating in the shores. She doesn’t believe it is suicide. The author added the setting of the town, which added to this cozy mystery. As well as good narration, I enjoyed. Well written and plot flowed. Given audio for my voluntary review.

4 and a half stars

Dead Man's Float is an entertaining story. The characters are engaging and realistic. The investigation of the mystery is believable with several twists and turns. The only problem is that the pacing was very slow and detailed at the end. The narrator did ok, but, the accents were a bit off sometimes. All in all, I really enjoyed listening to this book and look forward to other books in this series.

I received this book for free in exchange for an unbiased review.
