Natalie Barnes is hard at work, hosting a weight loss retreat at Gray Whale Inn. She hopes that providing top notch service including all of the meals, she may gain new customers and hopefully lose some weight herself. She isn't thrilled when she finds out the group leader, size 0 Vanessa, is an old girlfriend of her boyfriend, John. When co-owner and trainer, Dirk, is found dead, John and another islander are prime suspects. The cause of the death was poisoning, so Natalie's kitchen is shut down. What else can she do but a little investigating of her own to try to clear the man she loves and hopefully save their romance?
A visit to the Gray Whale Inn on Cranberry Island in Maine is always a pleasant getaway. I had been looking forward to Karen McInerney's third installment in this series for quite awhile. For the most part, this was a very fun read. At times, I got a little frustrated with Natalie. She takes some dangerous chances when exploring on her own. She sometimes jumps to conclusions with very little evidence. Overall, there was a good mystery with a satifactory conclusion. I'll be looking forward to the next book in the series.
Rating - 4.5 stars
