Overview
""How could an experienced pearl diver drown in calm waters protected by a coral reef? That sounds...suspicious..."" When Welsh Canadian criminal psychologist Cait Morgan literally bumps into a body floating in a picturesque lagoon on the paradise island of Tahiti, she and her retired cop husband Bud Anderson find themselves engulfed by the tragedy. Before long, our investigative duo realizes that not everything is as perfect as it appears at the luxury beach resort where they've been hosted as 'test guests'. Diving beneath the surface of the seemingly placid lives of the people Cait believes she has come to know, it becomes clear that many dark secrets have been lurking, hidden in the depths...and she finds herself awash with doubts about her abilities, and suspects. When another calamity befalls their group, Cait and Bud know they must act fast...because it's time to sink, or swim. This is the fourteenth book in the series featuring the often prickly and invariably justice-driven sleuth, Cait Morgan, and her quietly determined husband, Bud Anderson.

Reviews
PRAISE FOR THE CAIT MORGAN MYSTERIES ""In the finest tradition of Agatha Christie...Ace brings us the closed-room drama, with a dollop of romantic suspense and historical intrigue."" - Library Journal ""...touches of Christie or Marsh but with a bouquet of Kinsey Millhone."" - The Globe and Mail ""...a sparkling, well-plotted and quite devious mystery in the cozy tradition..."" - Hamilton Spectator ""...If all of this suggests the school of Agatha Christie, it's no doubt what Cathy Ace intended. She is, as it fortunately happens, more than adept at the Christie thing."" - Toronto Star ""Cait unravels the...mystery using her eidetic memory and her powers of deduction, which are worthy of Hercule Poirot."" - The Jury Box, Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine ""This author always takes us on an adventure. She always makes us think. She always brings the setting to life. For those reasons this is one of my favorite series."" - Escape With Dollycas Into A Good Book ""...a testament to an author who knows how to tell a story and deliver it with great aplomb."" - Dru's Musings ""...perfect for those that love travel, food, and/or murder (reading it, not committing it)."" - BOLO Books ""...Ace is, well, an ace when it comes to plot and description."" - The Globe and Mail
