From Booklist
That O'Neill also writes romances will come as no surprise to readers of her latest Liz Rooney mystery: the story definitely focuses more on relationships than suspense. That might not be a bad thing, however, as the mystery of who killed young country superstar Buford Doakes is less interesting than Liz's relationship with her NYPD boyfriend, Ike. Liz has left her Staten Island home for a weekend getaway to a resort in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains--the same one where Doakes is headlining. Accompanying her is best-friend Sophie, a new member of the NYPD who's engaged to fellow-cop Ralph. Not big fans of Doakes, Sophie and Liz are somewhat surprised to be invited to a preconcert party in his suite. Curiosity wins out and they attend, only to leave when Doakes' sleazy manager herds all the girls into the hot tub for a photo shoot. After Doakes is found murdered the next morning, the girls begin to investigate and are soon joined by Ralph and Ike. A pleasant outing for fans of lite mystery.
