Death's a Beach (Sister Cecile Mysteries)

Rating:
Summary: Winona Sullivan has hit her stride with this mystery.
Review: After I read A Sudden Death at the Norfolk Cafe and Dead South, I wasn't sure if I'd bother to read Death's a Beach. I wasn't crazy about the first two books in the Sister Cecile series. However, this is the best of the three books. Good characters. Interesting situations. Held my interest all the way through.

Summary: I enjoyed this story of a nun detective.
Review: I have just encountered another woman detective, in Death's a Beach. Author Winona Sullivan follows her P.I. nun into her second [and not last, I hope] case, where she is operating from a home for senior nuns and other seniors. The scenes and action come alive, showing the Everglades, Miami Beach, the gangsters, a sympathetic Miccosukee policeman, and another not-so-honest policeman. I was particularly drawn to the teenage ward of Sister Cecile and Jim Cypress, the Miccosukee 'good-cop.' The relationships and mutual understanding among the likeable and not-likeable characters were skillfully developed.
