hsinclair 's review for:

Bad Tourists: A Novel by Caro Carver
3.0
dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: N/A

Full disclosure, I don't typically read thrillers, but I was on vacation on a beach and the book takes place on vacation on a beach so it seemed appropriate. 

Anyways, I liked the characters and I liked the setting, but I was a bit disappointed when I figured out who the killer was halfway through and guessed how they did it. Of course, there were a few twists but overall it was a bit unfulfilling. 

Like I said, the characters were great and the hook was intriguing. I'd say this is a solid vacation read if you're looking for a light read (if you can call a murder mystery light, that is) set in a beautiful resort.
