Death at High Tide by Hannah Dennison
4.0
Cozies the golden age of detective fiction. This was my first read of this genre and I found I really liked it. The premise is simple but it works and now the main characters.
Evie Meads husband has died and her future is uncertain. She stands to inherit a hotel on one of the Isles of Scilly so what do you do, well you get this wonderfully, hairbrained idea that you go out there and see what is all like.
An island and the people dependent on the tide, all of secrets and all have something to loose. The book kept me engaged and it was fun to read. Rachel’s sleuthing is very low key, subtle but it works.
However at times it was glaringly clear to the reader (or me) who the culprit was.
I look forward to continuing with this series.
