Ideal for the poolside but being slower than the previous books in the series. With a lot more characters that needed to be described in the storyline, It became a bit tedious. With just enough intrigue at the end of the chapters it was enough to keep me reading. As the title suggests, there was to be a murder so it was no surprise when one occured. Culminating in lots of of arrests, some of which were surprising it was a satisfactory ending.
