Diving for Pearls by Jamie O’Connell
1.0

I received an ARC of this book from netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I don't really know - even after this book was about lifestyle in Dubai or about actually solving the mystery of a Girl's death. Whichever it was it was far from done well. The characters, apart from Siobhan and her family, never really came to life so understanding how Dubai treated them was difficult. The principles of investigation into the suspicious death seemed to be to arrest the person with the least power to complain.

There were so many discrepancies in the narrative that my head ached

The title bears little or no relevance to the narrative although it is mentioned once I suppose it has more pull than the utterly ridiculous non-investigation of a suspicious death.

Not an author i will be following
