Gosh, I'm wondering how this book got 4 stars. But then we are all different. This was my first (and last) Heather Graham.This book had every device of a soap opera. Nothing happened for 50 pages at a time except one person having sex with another or the others trying to figure out who was shacking up together currently and/or 3 years previously. Or, I suppose, in the 3 year interim.I remember watching soap operas with my grandmother as a teenager. On one drama the lead was taken to the hospital to have her baby. The baby was at term. The entire rest of the 30 minutes was taken up with one person telling another person that Susiebelle had been taken to the hospital in labor. My grandmother went home and returned 6 weeks later. Susiebelle had still not had that baby! She was still in the hospital and still in labor!That's exactly the way this book was. I suffered through half of it. Definitely not my kind of book.
This is my third Heather Graham book, and the best one by far. Full of suspense and intrigue, a real who-do-nit. I suspected the killer near the end but was never actually sure until it was revealed. The setting is a huge castle in Scotland with a dungeon and secret passageways. Three years before, Jon's wife, Cassie was thrown off the balcony during what was referred to as a mystery weekend. Now, three years later, Jon is determined to find the killer by having another party and inviting the same people with the exception of Sabrina, who did not accept his previous invitation, but has chosen to show up to this one. A snowstorm blows in and everyone is pretty much confined there for days. I loved it, it was a fun book and although I started it last night, I only read a chapter and then finished it all this morning; I couldn't put it down! Definite 5 star for me!!
