Susie Cooper has come to Scotland to work at a university as a marine biologist. She's thrilled to have the chance to work with  the animals that she loves in such a beautiful and prestigious surrounding. But the death of a colleague shatters the idyllic setting.Detective Inspector Nick Archer has always been sure of the man who killed his wife twelve years ago, and he's come back to Scotland to prove it. Now that there's been another murder he's positive the same person has committed it. Now all he has to do is prove his theory.Susie and Nick came into contact before the murder, but after it occurs their contact increases, since her boss is the main suspect. The only problem is Nick isn't the stick-around sort, and Susie is thinking it's time to have a child. Susie doesn't expect to fall from a man who's willing to use her in the course of his investigation. And Nick doesn't expect to want to have Susie in his life for more than one night.Can these two different people survive Nick's search for a killer and find themselves in the process?Ms. Anderson has penned an interesting mystery set against a very beautiful backdrop. Susie and Nick both have pasts full of angst and I have to admit that, at times, I thought it was a bit much. There are numerous characters and at times it was hard to keep track of some of the lesser ones. But the way Ms. Anderson developed the characters was enlightening, and I found the love that grew between them to be honest and real.The mystery itself was wonderfully plotted and the solution kept me guessing. Sea of Suspicion is suspenseful entertainment, and readers will find it very enjoyable.AmeliaReviewed for Joyfully Reviewed
