Good story that is about half mystery and half gay primer. Well written by a guy who knows Provincetown and its quirks.

Only in Key West can you find a crazy cast of characters ranging from a man bent on controlling the world markets to a ghost who foretells death with a whiff of jasmine. I had a good time reading this whodunit not only for the laughs but for the author's ability to throw seven murders into the mix and keep all but one of the killers a surprise. This is the first book in this series so I don't know much about Bradford or any of the other names he uses background but I found him very likable and inventive. I enjoyed the detail and freshness of this good read.… (mais)

Great story. Need to think how much to give away in review.
NB. This is a mystery with a gay lead. He is in a relationship but said relationship is very much on the backburner and not a massive part of the story. Just thought I should differentiate between a mystery/romance.

This was a solid, well-written mystery! This book is part of a series, but I haven't read the previous ones and I still found this very enjoyable. I'm certain there is a lot more interesting history of the characters in previous installments so I'd suggest going back to the beginning and reading if you're interested in a great mystery series!

Dan Sharp is a private investigator and he's called in to work on the kidnapping of a young boy. There are lots of interesting supporting characters in this novel who could be responsible for the kidnapping... there are motives all over the place. Round has woven together a great story. All the pieces of the puzzle are there for a reader to figure out what is going on! The mystery is very well-crafted... and I can't emphasize that enough. A good mystery needs finesse, talent, and attention to detail and Round has all of those things!

Dan Sharp is an interesting character. The subplot of this book involves Dan reminiscing about his past. Dan lost his mother when he was young and his alcoholic father was distant and disconnected. It seems to have made it difficult for him to connect with his new lover: Nick. Nick is a police officer and there is a lot of push and pull between them. Dan doesn't trust easily and that's all that Nick is really asking for. There was just the right amount of relationship plot added to this mystery to make it even more interesting!

A very satisfying mystery with very interesting characters! 4 stars from me!
