Title: Dire Crossing - I was disappointed
Review: I was very excited to find out about this book as it combined many of my interests - a mystery about ice skating, set in Casa de Campo golf resort in the Dominican Republic, where I had stayed and played. It was an interesting plot idea and the plot itself was ok but the writing was much too simplistic. She very frequently put words in quotes to "emphasize" them, and it drove me crazy. Although it seemed that she tried, there was little depth to the characters - the main female character kept saying things like "oh, I love my husband so much," - an attraction between her and the skating manager was an attempt at some emotional complexity, but it did not work.I enjoyed the familiarity with the setting and the skating connection (although there really is nothing about skating except setting up the travelling show). But I would not recommend this book to those who are looking for high quality writing.
