Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
Regan Reilly, recently engaged L.A. private detective, wants one last fling with her girlfriends in Hawaii before she says, "I do." When a mysterious body washes ashore near their Hawaiian hotel, this comic murder mystery takes off. The author narrates with humor and skill, developing quirky characters such as the mysterious "over-the-hill" twins and the man with "overly long" toes. She switches genders, ages, and character styles seamlessly, using pitch, timing, and subtle nuances to round out the characters and bring them to life. Perhaps because she's the author, she captures the essence of this romp. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
From Booklist
When the body of Dorinda Dawes washes ashore on the beach of Waikiki Waters, Will's life as general manager of the recently renovated resort takes yet another turn for the worse. Thankfully, Regan Reilly, noted L.A. investigator, booked a last-minute trip to this very vacation spot, so Will enlists her help. Although the police rule Dorinda's death an accident, Will can't shake the feeling that foul play was involved, particularly because Dorinda's gossip-mongering in the resort's monthly newsletter had incurred all sorts of ill will. And what about the rare shell lei, stolen from a Hawaiian museum 30 years ago, that was found around the victim's neck? Suspects abound, of course: Might Will be covering for his own misdeeds? Are certain members of an oddball group of travelers from the Northwest in cahoots? It's a silly plot with a formulaic arc, but what Clark (daughter of romantic suspense master Mary Higgins Clark) lacks in style, she makes up for in entertaining storytelling and likable characters.
