For some reason I am unable to fully explain this book held my attention much better than the previous 9 Alex Delaware novels. One of my biggest dislikes, really there are very few, is Kellerman's habit of describing whatever route Alex drives when he has to go somewhere. Being on an island that is 7 square miles and only about 1 mile of that accessible he wasn't really able to do that. So maybe that's it!

Nonetheless, I was captivated by the story. There was this mystery and in hindsight maybe lots of clues, but I didn't see it coming. I had very little expectations for this book, actually thought it would be boring so maybe that helped too. Moreland was strange and yet charming. Beyond him there wasn't much more to most of the other characters. An instant dislike for Creedman, but that was obvious.

Or maybe it was that there was more involvement from Robin. I genuinely like Robin. She seems to subtly make everything more interesting!
