Frostfall Island #7
Killing at the Kite Fair
The National Kite Flyer’s Club has chosen Frostfall Island for their annual summer kite fair. The island is busy with tourists and kite enthusiasts. Anna St. James is looking forward to the weekend, even though her boyfriend, Nate, will be spending the days mountain biking on the mainland.
A mysterious boat anchored offshore has a few of the locals worried, but Anna is sure there’s nothing to it until the festive kite fair takes a dark turn when one of the members is found dead. Anna was sure it would be an enjoyable few days, but now she’s wrapped up in a murder case. Except… the shocking murder might be the least stunning part of her weekend.
Trust me, reader, YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS ONE!

I like this series cause there are a few different mysteries/unknowns that are happening outside of the mystery of the individual books. The characters are all interesting, and I really like Nate’s relationship with her. I actually would have been okay with this book only being about about the big reveal! I think the murder actually got in the way of all of us truly processing what happened! We have more mysteries to solve and I am excited!

Anna certainly has her hands full with the kite flying group filling up the skies with kites and intrigue. Given that the victim isn't all that well liked by his fellow kite-flyers, she has her hands full sorting through motives and whereabouts.
As if that isn't enough, a boat anchoring just outside the harbor has the locals in a tizzy. Not because of anything it's done, but because of all the things it hasn't done.
While Anna sorts through clues on the crime committed, she's on a tight time frame since the kite flying group will all be heading off-island soon and the murderer might end up getting away with his crime. That said, she ends up with answers to questions that have been lingering for a while and some closure. Added bonus: She and Nate are still tight as a couple and some of Anna's fears about island life being too slow for the former detective seem like a non-issue.
A few indiscretions, a little spying, a shock or two that Anna certainly didn't see coming, and answers on more than one front. It's never dull on Frostfall!

Wow! London Lovett has written another amazing Frostfall Island Mystery! I loved it! This is one you will not want to miss! There is a kite fair on the island and as normal there is a murder, but that is not the most explosive thing happening for Anna in this one. I don't want to give any spoilers so I will not! But, wow I had a feeling from Book One! This book does not disappoint and as usually ends with us wanting more with a hint of more mystery! This unusual bunch of quirky islanders make a wonderful and unique family! Thanks London for the ARC!!!

Oh. My. Goodness!
I feel like a broken record saying that I love this series. But I really love this series!
There has been more than one mystery interwoven into each story so far, and this one had a really big twist! I’m so curious to see what’s going to happen next!
Like another reviewer, I do feel like we didn’t get much time to process this twist because Anna was trying to solve a murder at the same time. It’s very good though, and I am so happy to have found this series of books!

Killing at the Kite fair is a FANTASTIC book. I could not put it down.
Anna has to solve another island murder. I really enjoyed her interactions with the island folk and the suspects.
My favorite part about this book is the on going story of her dead husband. We finally find out more information !! I can’t wait for the next book.

Wow!
Great story! Characters seem very real. As the serie progresses, the author has a clever way of smoothly weaving in answers to unspoken questions that the reader may have about previous situations occurring in prior books of the serie (answering questions and raising new ones!).
London Lovett is a very accomplished author and I love all of her books.

This is an excellent book by London Lovett. It has a surprise ending that most wont see coming. I love all of the characters and the island setting.
