Lynn Woo Mystery #1
Boca Moon
DEATH COMES CALLING...Lynn Woo's former commanding officer in Naval Intelligence is vacationing on a tropical island in Southwest Florida. Retired Admiral Whit Jenkins' son-in-law chooses the wrong night to take his infrared camera to the salty back bays in search of panthers. He pays for it with his life and Lynn discovers his murdered, mutilated body strung between two mangrove trees. It's been years since she's seen the result of violent death and she hasn't missed it. BUT THE CALL MUST BE ANSWERED...But now Lynn must tell Jenkins about the murder, and, ignoring her new back bay nature tour business, she plunges into the investigation. Along the way, Lynn deals with more murders, live alligators, seamy commercial fishermen, a fiery Seminole Indian girl, and attempts on her own life. She's helped by her best island friend, who is a mammoth, black sheriff's deputy, and her lover, who is a hand-washing germ freak. It all happens in a real place-Boca Grande-a tony tropical island on Florida's southwest coast. It's home to coconut palms and banyans, pelicans and iguanas, and rich people who mingle freely with the island folks. AND REDEMPTION HAS A PRICE...When Lynn Woo closes in on a den of greed and ego which will stop at nothing, including murder, she's met with a jolting surprise ending to this twisting tale of tropical skullduggery.

This book by Foster is a very good mystery. You get to know the characters and they are believable people. The plot goes through many twists and turns and ends with a real twist. Mystery readers should really enjoy reading this one.

This was an okay read. For me it was much of the same, bad guys kill people, good guy- in this case good girl- stops them.
