Title: Tortuous Reading
Review: Supposedly the story of a murder of a young woman visiting Tortola where her parents had a house. She's found dead on the beach. Three or four guys sharing a house are investigated. One has blood on a pair of sneakers. Perhaps this could have been an interesting story, and I read a lot of true crime, but I had to slog my way through this one. I got no feel for the victim (except apparently she was flaky - but no reason to kill her), I couldn't have cared less about the guys who were arrested, and the writing was so tedious I don't know how this book was ever published. It was way too long for the small amount of information it gave.
Is the review positive or negative?
