Makes one want to relax on a small Key in southwest Florida. But not Rattlesnake Key! This author knows her Florida and her genre. The sleuth, Clyde Colby, is sexy and smart. It's a very good story, and the food is great.

I'm not normally a reader of mysteries, but the imagery of South Florida, the intelligent writing, and the colorful characters of Rattlesnake Key kept me turning pages. What a great marriage of food and murder--Clyde Colby has my vote for sleuth of the year!

I liked the way this built from a comfortable sort of "cozy" into a high stakes, almost creepy murder mystery. It also presented a colorful imaginative picture of the rich and famous in Florida. The ending especially was great -- it kept me awake until 3 a.m. the night I wrapped it up.
Feast on this!

It is extremely RARE that you find a murder story this WELL DONE. Ms. Board certainly knows her MEDIUM WELL. STEAK, er, stake a great reading experience on it!
The Plot Thickens

Remarkable attention to detail across an accumulation of suspects. It keeps you wondering as well as wandering through a labyrinth of dire, but plausible situations. Charming well defined characters culminating in "Who done it? and Why?" on a south Florida Island. The Author's obviously broad background across a cadre of relevancy makes the reader a part of the setting. A big fast moving story line in a comfortable number of pages. Good reading.
