I love a mystery with a 1920-30's time-frame. This is the first book for this author and I am pleasantly delighted with her characters and plotting. Although it does indeed have an Agatha Christie flair, her heroine gives us a deeper look into her thoughts and emotions. Her life is a bit complicated but in an interesting way. No noir stuff here!

A fantastic game of clue as the reader follows wealthy Amory Ames as she puts herself into a love triangle on holiday where a murder occurs and she must help find out who the killer is - it was so good! With quite the cast of characters, I would suggest taking a few notes so as the book goes along you can refer back to them. I had a time with the couples and remembering their quirks!
I absolutely loved this book. The twists and turns were perfectly timed and I loved the final outcome - the killer part at least. I am not sure I loved the outcome of the love triangle, but it didn't make me like the book any less.
