Summary

Sun, sand, and of course--murder.

At long last, lady detective Rosemary Lillywhite and her best friend Vera are on their way to a much-needed holiday, and they’re not traveling alone.

Rosemary’s impish brother, Frederick, on sabbatical from work at their father’s company, wouldn't dream of missing out on a tropical getaway—or or the chance to push his sister's buttons!

To that end, Frederick invites his longtime chum—Rosemary's childhood crush, Desmond Cooper—along for the trip. If a little romance mends her broken heart, so much the better.

Except, Rosemary has already begun to find interest in another man—dashing detective Max Whittington, who isn't thrilled about being left behind in London while she gallivants about in sunny Cyprus.

The Aphrodite Sands hotel seems like the perfect place to relax and forget her troubles, but unfortunately death seems to follow Rosemary wherever she goes—even as far as the Isle of Love.

When another body turns up, she's compelled to find the culprit, especially if it means putting romance on the back burner.

The only problem is, both Max and Desmond have their eyes on the prize, and neither are willing to let sleeping dogs lie.
Rosemary will have to decide which burns brighter—a new match or an old flame.

Book three in The Mrs. Lillywhite Investigates series.

Are you ready to escape to the roaring twenties? For fans of Beth Byers, Leighann Dobbs, Lee Strauss, and cozy historical murder mysteries.

A light, cozy mystery with no swearing, graphic scenes, or cliffhangers.

Great fun

I’ve been a fan of the Mrs Lillywhite Investigates series for a while now, so I jumped on the chance to review the audiobook of Death on the Isle of Love, the third in the series.

This time around, Rosemary and Co have taken a holiday to Cyprus, and it’s not long before there’s a death.

I really enjoyed listening to this mystery. The story is a good one, with all sorts of suspicious characters staying and working at the hotel. It was great fun to follow Rosemary and her friends as they try to figure out what happened.

The setting was a lovely one, with the luxurious hotel and the beautiful surroundings. Although Rosemary and Co didn’t manage to see as much of it as they were hoping to!

The narration was very good, putting in expression and feeling, and generally bringing the story to life. The different characters were well distinguished with different voices.

Overall, I very much enjoyed this murder mystery. I love the characters, the plot, and the narration is great too.

I was given a copy of this audiobook, my opinions are my own.

Intriguing story.

An intriguing story with a wonderful cast of characters, plenty of surprises and humour, and a bit of romance. The book is excellently narrated by Caren Naess.

A review copy of this book was sent to me by the author. All of the above opinions are my own.
