This review is from: The Wild Island (Mass Market Paperback)
I read the first Jemima Shore novel and found it pretty mediocre. Still, they made a television series based on the books so I figured there must be something right about the series. Having just finished the second book in the series, I'm baffled.

In The Wild Island, Jemima heads to a remote Scottish island for a quiet vacation. When she gets there, her host is dead and his odd family is virtually at each other's throats. Turns out the dead host thought he was the legitmate heir to Bonnie Prince Charlie. More deaths follow. Of course, things are sorted out in the end with Jemima in the middle of it - though I'm not sure if she made much of a difference.

Fundamentally, my problem with this series is that I just don't care for Jemima. She isn't a warm character. There is no humor and she takes herself very seriously. I am particularly troubled by her habit of falling into bed with married men (not a bright idea even in these liberated times) and her total lack of remorse. This make two men in two books. I'm hardly a prude but this plot device leaves me cold.

Bottom-line: There's probably a reason why this series faded into the sunset after six or seven books.
