Murder on the Rocks

“Murder on the Rocks” is a cute cozy mystery set on a quaint island beset by big-city developers, both greedy and insular islanders, and embezzlers.

The book itself is just okay. I read it in the middle of tax season in a seemingly unending winter, so descriptions of riding a bike or walking around outside were almost like porn. And, really, that's what this book is.

The main character is pretty flighty and runs off from a partially filled B&B when the power is out and there have been threats against her, leaving her guests with candles.

But, there's a part of me that would like to run an Inn with a hulky, miniature-shop-carving tenant/deputy next door and ride my bike to the seaside town. Well, sans all that baking and diabetes prep. With just a few improvements, this could have been a stronger story. But, that likely won't stop me from checking out the next title in the series!
