You are cordially invited to a destination wedding to die for...Welcome to Bocas del Toro, a remote chain of islands off the Caribbean coast of Panama. Five days of glorious sun and lush rainforest await the forty guests celebrating Bridezilla Olivia’s dream wedding—but will a murder sink the catered affair? Before anyone’s got time to start working on a tan, an unfortunate snorkeling accident eliminates a member of the wedding party. Maid of honor Lexie Marino smells trouble, and is thrust into the responsibility of investigating, needing to solve the case before her bestie’s trip down the aisle gets tropically derailed. The show must go on.Lexie’s a little too tall, a little too awkward, and a little too brokenhearted, but she’s determined to nail the real killer. Can this unlikely sleuth stay afloat as she’s hit by wave after wave of wildly entertaining characters, including an alpha bride, surfing detectives, and a high school flame long forgotten? You’ll find yourself laughing until the very end of Drowning Lessons, a debut cozy mystery that makes the perfect beach read. Rub in some coconut oil, dangle your feet in the crystal-blue waters of Dolphin Bay, and sip a cool drink as Lexie discovers the deductive superpowers she never knew she had. Let the party begin!
My Review
Great debut for this new series: a compelling plot, a spectacular setting and bizarre characters, nothing is missing.
Lexi is the bridesmaid at the wedding of her friend Olivia but the party is in danger of jumping when a guest is found dead and the main suspect is the future groom. Olivia tries to hide the murder and Lexi will have to do everything possible to help her and solve the case
The characters are very realistic, Lexi is a great woman, she has infinite patience with Olivia, a crazy control freak.
It's a well written story, the plot is well intertwined and unpredictable, so many bizarre situations, twists and lots of humor. I loved the descriptions of this Caribbean paradise
To read for lovers of cozy mystery
