Death Took a Dive

by Audrey Claire

Annie's aunt is the last person to get caught in scandal. She's the fashionable and integrity-conscious rock in Annie's life. When Aunt Bridge calls to say her lover has gone over the side of his yacht, Annie must run to the rescue. He left a suicide note, and Aunt Bridge claims to have been asleep the entire time, but something isn't right. Her aunt is nervous as much as she's grieving.

News of the death hits Amberlon, South Carolina faster than Annie anticipated. Aunt Bridge's lover was being investigated for embezzlement. Police suspect Aunt Bridge was involved, and worse that she's hiding stolen money. With Aunt Bridge's reputation in tatters, Annie can't worry about who has been leaving gifts of chocolate on her doorstep. Are the chocolates poison or is this about something else?

Then there's Stacy, who's fallen for another older guy. Annie thought she had Stacy distracted with her romance book club, but vindictive ladies with connections are out to destroy it.

Annie Holloway has a couple of mysteries to solve in Death Took a Dive by Audrey Claire. Annie's biggest challenge involves helping her Aunt Bridge. Apparently, Aunt Bridge's friend, Lyle Hinkle, went overboard while they were on his yacht. Annie helps find his suicide note and then her OCD goes into overdrive. Luckily her boyfriend, Flynn, and best friend Stacy, support her unconditionally. This book has quirky, interesting characters. I enjoyed it. Be forewarned that this book ends with a cliff hanger question!
