Death by Bikini by Linda Gerber


This was a very nice book.


Aphra Behn Connolly has the type of life most teenage girls envy. She lives on a remote tropical island and spends most of her time eavesdropping on the rich and famous. The problem is that her family's resort allows few opportunities for her to make friends - much less to meet cute boys. So when a smoldering Seth Mulo arrives with his parents, she's immediately drawn to him. Sure, he's a little bit guarded, and sure his parents are rather cold, and okay he won't say a word about his past, but their chemistry is undeniable. Then a famous rock star's girlfriend turns up dead on the beach - strangled by her own bikini top - and alarm bells sound. Is it too great a coincidence that Seth's family turned up just one day before a murder? As the plot thickens, Aphra finds that danger lurks behind even the most unexpected of faces...



Ok, I kept getting mad at myself because I had heard how good this series was, and I still hadn't read it. So, I finally checked it out at the library; and let's just say...I read it in one sitting. I don't usually enjoy mysteries; but I enjoyed this a lot. Linda Gerber, has a talent for writing mysteries, I'll tell you that, It isn't the best book I have ever read, but it was a very nice read. I recommend this to young adults who enjoy mysteries.
