I am a big fan of the existing two series that this author writes - Geraldine Steel and Ian Peterson - which are both Police Procedurals so I was quite intrigued to see what this new offering was about.And, after reading it in only a couple of days, I am pleased to report that it didn't disappoint. It is however quite different to her Police books but the same style shines through as does the sheer amount of dedicated research that the author is so good at - tough setting to do that, honestly, must have been a right chore!So, Lucy has broken up with her two-timing fiance and is persuaded to join her parents on holiday in the Seychelles. The destination is not a random one because, before he met her mother, Lucy's father worked at their hotel as an accountant back in the 70s, having not set foot back since being "persuaded" to leave during a coup d'etat. Then, as strange things begin to happen to Lucy, she starts to wonder if it is her imagination, the heat or if she's actually in danger? Then when her Mum disappears and Lucy starts to discover that maybe her father's past is not as simple as she once thought, things start to escalate towards a dramatic conclusion.I am not sure about Lucy. I started off at the beginning not really liking her but as the book progressed, I did start to warm to her a bit and, who knows, I've been wrong about people in the past!The setting itself was delightfully described although I did think at one point it got a bit repetitive. Oooo sun, ooo flowers, and that did distract me a little from the story and I think is why at times I felt it a little clunky.
