What I liked:To me there weren't any obvious holes in the plot. Having lived I Australia for a while, I enjoyed reading about some of the places I have seen and listening to some Aussie phrases. I liked the fact that the main character showed an average person's fear at being in a life-threatening situation. Unless in many cozy mysteries, she didn't mutate from Jane Doe to James Bond, single-handedly eliminating the criminal(s).What I didn't like:It wasn't one of those books I couldn't stop reading. The story sometimes dragged on a bit. The main character Roxy didn't show any sympathy towards the man who confessed his love to her. She didn't seem to have genuinely strong feelings for anyone. Was a bit too cool for my liking.Overall, a nice book to pass time but I wouldn't actively look for a sequel.
