One of a series of Martha's Vineyard mysteries. A death that looks accidental turns out to be murder, but the "detective" has to really push to get the facts to prove it, almost to the point of becoming another victim! Fun read.

I sat down to read just the first two chapters and first thing I knew I was on page 113 in chapter 11.
What a shame the author didn't use my main suspect as the killer, as I developed such a wonderful motive for the murder.
