Regan and Jack Reilly decide to celebrate their first anniversary by getting away to Cape Cod for a romantic getaway in the off-season. They expect a quiet weekend to themselves and arrive in the midst of a terrible storm. The two busybody old ladies next door quickly barge in and make themselves at home since they have a broken window. Then, Skip, the caretaker, finds the body of a woman on the beach. When Jack and Regan go back with him to get the body, it appears that she has been washed out to sea. There are hints that Adele may not have been the nicest person after all as she had been buying gift pillows to give as apologies to people she had offended.
I started reading this book and then later picked up the audio book. I haven't read a Carol Higgins Clark for awhile and for the most part, I enjoyed the book. Sometimes, it seemed there were too many extra characters with their own side stories. There is humor in Ms. Clark's stories but at times the characters appear cartoonish or the sarcasm doesn't work very well.
Rating - B
