The Dark and Deadly Pool by Joan lowery is a very mysterious book. Liz is an awkward teenager seeking love and acceptance from her school and peers. One summer she decided to take a job. Her mom always told her, it was the perfect job who had grown too tall too fast. Sjhe would be working at the luxirous Ridely Hotel. She will be working in the health club. She has to clean the jacuzzi, watch the swimming pool through the office and lock up at closing time. She will be working five days a week from three in the afternoon till closing.It was a great job and Liz loved it. She was meeting new people and having fun. Liz is always uneasy at closing time. Every sound echoes and all lights cast eerie shadows. One night she is by the pool and sommeone grabs her foot and screams in her face. Then it slides beneath the pool and is gone. The security guard refuses to help Liz and goes about his business. Danger surrounds Liz. Someone is watching her. Thank heaven Liz meet a faithful friend. Fran is four inches shoter then her, but no less funny, romantic, or smart. He makes her feel safe. Whoever is behind the series of events at the pool scene must be someone Liz knows. A person who stop for nothing-even murder.

This is a really good book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Dark and Deadly Pool (Laurel-Leaf Suspense Fiction) (Paperback)
I've just started to read a lot of Joan Lowrey Nixon books, and this one is my favorite one so far. Her mysteries aren't too hard to figure out most of the time, and this one is no exception, but I love the main characters, Liz and Fran. They have so much personality I feel as if they could be my best friends. The dialogue between them is always funny, and even though this story is kind of lacking in the mystery and suspense area, it's still a great book. If you want a good mystery book or suspense book by this author try "The Seance", "The Kidnapping of Christina Lattimore", or "Wispers From the Dead"

5.0 out of 5 stars
great for young teens,
This review is from: The Dark and Deadly Pool (Paperback)
i read this book with high expectations since i had previously read the weekend was murder(which i believe to be Nixon's best book). i must say it lived up to those expectations. Nixon is a great writer and her mysteries, although a little cheesy, are fun. i love her light romance. It's never too over the top. this book is great for younger teens because it is somewhat cheesy.It's not her best, but in my mind nothing tops the weekend was murder which also follows the life of Liz. I absolutely loved Fran... corky and sweet...this book is a great read.
