Murder in Portafino by T A Willia

 




This story set in stunning surroundings so beautifully descriptive that one gets a bit side tracked from the detective murder mystery that the genre actually is.

Armstrong with his girl friend is on a long planned weekend in the seaside town of Rappallo along with the faithful Oscar, when first one case and then the second fall into his lap literally. One a missing girl, quickly found fortunately and the second the dead body the couple find, and arguments overheard which may be linked to the case, followed  by  another murder which upsets who the murder suspect may be .

Set amongst celebrities on a luxury yacht, with tensions in the group simmering just beneath the facade, the story brings into play another Detective from the Portafino police who I hope will reappear in another story.

Very good, light reading and very entertaining.
