Nautical New England guy mystery
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is a very solid read. I'm a little surprised it won an Edgar but it was almost 20 years ago. Standards may have changed. What stands out about this mystery is the nautical/Cape Cod element. Boats and ships and ship building are the core of this novel. I found this interesting. The plot is a little far fetched, but I'm not a bored guy trying to get through a mid-life crisis by poking my nose into a murder. My middle aged husband has gotten quite a kick out of this book - so maybe it's a guy thing.Bottom line: a good read - easy to imagine the reader on the beach with this story. I'll check out at least one other Boyer book.
A great summertime book.
