| Minx Tobin is a fitness instructor who has earned a reputation for solving mysteries. A friend who supposedly died in a boating accident shows up at as an artist whose work is being showcased. Can another case be brewing?. There's no doubt when he turns up dead the next day. Suspects fill the pages as Minx and Detective Gabe Harris skirt around their attraction to one another.
Susanne Marie Knight pens another thriller in this series. The lives of the rich and famous overlap with those who work for a living. Character building and dialogue are great. The suspense as Minx confronts a killer is edge of your seat. For a woman whose intuition and people skills in a case are superb, Minx doesn't seem to do well communicating with Gabe. He's a macho man with a heart of gold but doesn't let Minx see much of his better side. Gabe's friend, Sgt. Antonio Atwell and his family are a priceless addition that really give the tale a boost. The author does a great job blending everyday people, some of whom are a bit creepy, with the suspects. Associates we meet at the fitness Emporium, especially the guys, will pique the memories of those forgettable dates we had before finding Mr. Right for many women. This is a fun series worth a read.
