The characters were well developed and very likable. The secondary characters were fun in their own quirky way. The murderer was a surprise to me. I still don't know why Happy and Teddy were killed. It seemed unnecessary to me. This would make a good beach book as it's an easy read and doesn't take much concentration. ( ) Okay, I liked this book. I like Kyle and Danny, I like Detective Linda Sikorsky and the people in the Pride Lodge and the mystery. What I didn't like was the lesbian assassin. And by that, I don't mean the usual dislike you feel for someone whose main goal in life is killing three people, no. What I mean is that I simply got bored (quickly) of the sheer amount of little chapters from her POV that did nothing to advance the story, and keep only repeating themselves over and over. I think that the idea was that we'll be feeling sorry for her, and That aside, the mystery is interesting, and Kyle and Danny are alluring enough to keep me reading this series. There are happily settled couples, colorful resort staff, a sad revenge assassin, a diligent homicide detective, enough plot twists to keep me happy, well done suspense, and no kind of gratuitous erotica. The publisher's blurb gives the barest of clues, and for once I'm doing a spoiler by raising the suspicion that one of the murders is unsolved. But don't tell Callahan. I got this as Whispersync on the cheap, and I feel that K.C. Kelly was really great as audio performer. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Who killed Teddy the handyman - if anyone killed him at all? Was it Sid, one of the new owners of Pride Lodge whose past gets darker the closer you look? Was it the woman whose name was once Emily, when she witnessed the murder of her parents in a burglary gone bad, and who has waited thirty years for vengeance? Was it young Happy Corcoran, promoted to bartender only to vanish three days before Teddy was found dead at the bottom of the empty pool? Find out soon . . . as Kyle Callahan refuses to believe it was an accident, doggedly pursues the truth in his friend's death and does his best not to join him.'Murder at Pride Lodge' is the first in the Kyle Callahan Mystery series. Kyle and his partner Danny Durban live in New York City, where murder never seems to be more than a subway stop away. In this first story, they head to Pride Lodge, their favorite getaway from the City, over what they expect to be a festive Halloween weekend. What they find instead is a web of murder, deceit, and revenge served cold as a knife blade. At the Lodge we meet a rich cast of characters, many of whom return in Book II, 'Pride and Perilous,' that finds them back in the familiarity of New York City. Murder has never been this much fun.
