Fizzy Arbuthnot and her chums are enjoying a glorious summer test-driving Rolls-Royces on the small Scottish island of Rùm – that is, until one of their number is murdered in the night. When an apocalyptic storm immediately engulfs the island – making escape completely impossible, even for the culprit – Fizzy decides that there’s nothing for it but to solve the crime. A tale of romance, intrigue, espionage, and idiosyncrasy unfolds, as this group of Bright Young Things and their Scottish hosts try to save the day.
A new book by Anna Reader is something I always look forward to. This book however I found disappointing. Perhaps it was the small island that seemed to lack interest but I just couldn't enjoy it.
