Product Details

Product Description

From Library Journal

The murder of sleazy/disreputable Jesse Penrick interrupts Annie and Max Darling's honeymoon when Annie's friend, desperate for assistance, phones her. The friend's subsequent disappearance galvanizes the island of Broward's Rock (off the Carolinas), precipitates the involvement of a gaggle of sleuths, and provides for the author's frequent allusions to various mysteries (Annie runs the Death on Demand mystery bookstore). The literary references fall a bit thick, as do appendant crimes, batty characters, cliches, and extended "important" messages. True mystery devotees should love this. REK

3.0étoiles sur 5 Unlikely premise, Jui 4 2002
Par Karen Potts (Lake Jackson, Texas) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: Honeymoon With Murder (Paperback)
At long last Annie Laurance and Max Darling are married, in a ceremony which is a compromise between Max's mother Laurel's "far-out" ideas and Annie's desire for a simple, dignified ceremony. That all rings true, but what happens next does not. A murder is committed and a likely suspect disappears and suddenly the inhabitants of the island are enticed into a city of tents, divided up into men's and women's quarters from which they are to launch a search for a missing woman. It is difficult to imagine that such a thing would happen (why can't they search during the day and stay in their own homes at night?) and even more difficult to believe that a newly-married couple would fall for such a scheme. Max's mother Laurel provides some comic relief in the book, but her occult-loving friend Ophelia is a just a bit over the top. Let's come back down to earth, Mrs. Hart, and return to the formula which made you successful, the Agatha Christie-like mystery solved by the deductive reasoning of the heroine. Annie's solution to the case comes as almost a minor event compared to the other things which are going on in the book.

3.0étoiles sur 5 One wedding, one murder, one missing and one abduction, Sep 25 2001
Par Carol Peterson Hennekens (Colorado Springs, CO United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Honeymoon With Murder (Paperback)
This is the fourth book in Carolyn Hart's "Death on Demand" series. As with the other books in the series, it's full of references to fictional sluethes (all pre-1988 but still fun for mystery fans). Annie and Max finally get married. Before they can honeymoon, Annie's assistant Ingrid is abducted and a dead man is found in her house. The resulting search is so far fetched as to be a farce in many ways.

This isn't one of Hart's best books. My primary peeve is that she forshadows the murderer early and often. Also, for a book with the word "Honeymoon" in the title, there's very little romance. I'm also getting really tired of the character of Posey. Annie deserves a more worthy adversary.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Not her best, Jui 26 2001
This review is from: Honeymoon With Murder (Paperback)
I normally love the Death on Demand series. But I didn't really like this book. I wanted to like it. But it didn't hold my interest. I have to admit I skimmed parts and read the end.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Just sufficiently more fun than it is irritating
This is a nice fluffy cozy, deeply annoying in spots, but on the whole I must enjoy this series because I find I keep buying it. Read more
