In this first Twin Lakes mystery, we meet Lydia Krause, a highly competent businesswoman, now retired, who on her first social outing in her new gated community has a very public fight with a man she recognizes as the ex-con who caused her sister's suicide and an even more explosive exchange with the man's wife. Lydia thinks her proven business expertise will translate into ability as an amateur detective. She needs a detective, because early the next morning someone uses her car to kill the woman she fought with, and naturally enough she's the prime suspect. So she decides to play sleuth.I loved this book. Lydia is so very real, as are the troubles she manages to get herself entangled in. I'm looking forward to the other books in the series. Will Lydia learn from these troubles to let the professional detectives solve their own cases? Somehow I doubt it!
