Secrets of the Dead by Carol Wyer
4.0
I very much enjoyed this novel. I could see a real improvement from the last book in the series (which I also enjoyed) and was pleased to see the progression. I really like Robyn and her determination to find the murderer and I love that she employs her private investigator cousin to help her.
I loved the setting of this story, a fancy spa hotel. The descriptions were good and I could almost picture being there. The plot is strong and I honestly wavered back and forth between who I thought the murderer was. I wasn't surprised at the end but that didn't take away from the story. The only real drawback to the story, for me, was that Robyn is not really revealed as a person. She's a great policewoman but there's not a lot of personal info and we really don't know what's going on in her personal life. I am hoping that as the series moves on, we will get more of a personal glimpse of Robyn and the rest of her team.
