beriboo 's review for:
Murder on Lake Garda
by Tom Hindle
I read it in two sittings over two days and it was a nice easy read, nothing spectacular, nothing offensive, pretty much what you want out of a cozy crime book.
The characters are all unlikeable, and are meant to be. It has quite a build up to the murder, and then a load of suspects trapped on an island waiting for the police, all suspecting each other.
I do give a little side-eye to people who say “oh I knew who the killer was straight away”, the writing is meant to make to you think it’s each of the characters at some point, so yes, you probably did think it was them. But also someone else at a different point of the book.
Anyway, it’s not meant to be a great mystery of the ages, it’s just a fun read, so don’t take it too seriously and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.
