This is part legal/political thriller but mostly an old fashioned who done it. Lots of characters,with motive, secrets etc. 1998 copyright so at times I caught myself asking why are you using public telephones etc. But, the date doesn't impair the story at all. It was enjoyable read.

The author was an attorney. I've tried more than one of her books, just to make sure and give her a fair shake. The premise of the story seemed as if it could be interesting, so I gave it a try. To me, the young attorney is written as well beyond her years and nowhere near how a real young woman of her age would talk or behave (a common problem, I think, whenever any middle-aged lawyer tries to create characters younger than themselves). Have you ever read a book where you think you could do a better job and you're not even a writer? Case closed.

This was a well told suspenseful mystery. Though the plot of a husband mysteriously disappearing from yacht party, is not new, I loved the twists and turns that was traveled to discover the cause. This was my first exposure to this author. I'm looking forward to exploring more of her work.

This is an exciting "who done it" In Every chapter Rebecca tries to get help finding who killed her husband. She goes above and beyond what the police think is enough to close the case. It is a page-turner. Just when you think she is going to give up. She keeps on

Terrible writing, and not even remotely believable in any respect. Don't waste your time.

Many slow chapters but it picks up in the end.

The main character was at times incredibly smart and incredibly dumb.
Probably a lot like most of us!!!
