This is a collection of ten classic crime stories set during summer by the sea. This is an entertaining read, especially if you're on the beach and you're craving a light mystery. It's a cozy type of mystery, nothing too dark or scary. I especially liked the first ones. After a few stories, they started to get a bit repetitive and I wasn't very intrigued. But it's still a book I would recommend to someone who's looking for a short book to bring on holidays.
