Book Description

Five Star First Edition Mystery September 2006
Review by Harriet Klausner, #1 Amazon reviewer: The Board of Directors of the Genesplice Corporation forced their C.O.O., Blair Armstrong and her cousin, top scientist Nathan Rankin, to attend a team building session hosted by Nona and Orlando's Business Systems on board the yacht Swashbuckler. Others in attendance are Blair's husband Roger and her brother Philip, who brought his male lover on board. Finally all around gofer Marilen Case is there to serve; she hopes to gain a proposal from her boyfriend Nathan.

They have not left port before Blair starts acting nasty towards everyone, especially Marilen, and gets into a brawl with Nathan after nastily dissing Marilen. Not long afterward Marilen and the ship's Captain "Free" Freeman become lovers while someone kills Blair in her cabin. The new lovers begin investigating a bunch of folks having a grudge against the nasty Blair to include: an apparent stowaway who allegedly snuck on board to spend loving time with the cook; the brilliant cousin; the philandering spouse; the brother and his lover...but especially Marilen whose alibi is sack time with Free.

Though the queen of mean is too nasty towards everyone, which ironically leads to a boatload of suspects, TRIANGLE is a swift moving amateur sleuth investigative tale. The story line starts off as a relationship drama between dysfunctional family members and outsiders drawn into their internal squabbles, but after the players take side, the plot changes into a locked room murder mystery. Fans will enjoy this fine at sea thriller.

4.0 out of 5 stars Triangle, December 11, 2007
This review is from: Triangle (Five Star First Edition Mystery) (Hardcover)
A cruise that was meant to combine research for a scientist and some
relaxation for Marilen Case, the company gofer, turns into a nightmare of
gigantic proportions when someone aboard proves to be a murderer.

Marilen has problems before the yacht even leaves port. She is hoping for a marriage proposal from one man and is stunned to find herself in bed with another. Her plans are ruined.

Talented author Sue Swift gives the mystery reader a good tale with lots of intrigue and fun characters who are caught together in a web of fear. The shadow of mystery cast by the reputation of the Bermuda Triangle adds color to the story when the captain learns his navigation and communications aren't working.

A tale peopled with well drawn characters who each have a private agenda or problem aboard the yacht and many act in cross purposes as the plot unfolds. Recommended as a fun read with red herrings and false clues added to the mix. Enjoy. I sure did.
