Another absolute winner!
I swear, CLR Dougherty gets better with every new book he writes. The flow is natural and easy. The tension is there, without being overpowering. The humor is dry, the beauty magnificent. And as usual, the bad guys are particularly bad, rendering their violent outcome all the more delicious!
I particularly liked this book because of its location in Soufriere, St. Lucia, a place I have visited numerous times. It was like coming home to a party. I won't give away the details, other than to say that Dani and Liz are as kick-ass as ever, and its always good to see Sharktooth, Phillip, Sandrine, and Marie.
A must read for all of The fans of Mr. Dougherty's fabulous works.

Nice contract. Nice people . All is not apparent until it is.
I always chose this rating when it comes to a Bluewater Novel. They are always great stories and written beautifully. My only regret is that I missed one. I'll rectify now.

Great story with compelling characters
Mr. Dougherty has a great thing going. I love his authentic mixture of sailing, the islands, intrigue and his wonderful characters. I think I'm in love with Dani, she is such a wonderful combination of skills and virtues. I recommend all of Mr. Dougherty's books.

Dull. Disappointed in this one in the series- insipid plot line, boring charter guests and the ending was rushed and just sort of petered out. Dani’s murderous tendencies border on psychopathic . Drink coffee, get kidnapped by baddies, kill them, dump their bodies , drink more coffee … and repeat

A delightful read
A unique story line that even having a feel for the outcome was captivating. Good characterization, a little intrigue and intensity and viola a good read.
