There is something so comforting about meeting familiar characters in a new book. I love Doiron‘s Mike Bowdich mysteries. This isn‘t one of his best but it almost doesn‘t matter. Mike and Stacy Stevens are looking forward to their upcoming marriage. They‘re literally “on Golden Pond” for a celebration with family, including Charley and Ora, when Mike is called out to investigate what seems a fatal boat crash. Mayhem ensues!

Another good one in the Mike Bowditch Series!

I‘ll remember this one mostly as the book I fell asleep reading as I lay on the hardwood floor outside my bathroom, where my firework-terrified dog sought refuge from the booms. I‘ll also remember it as the series installment that frustrated and disappointed me. I felt patronized by the over-explaining of every single procedure, often poorly disguised as conversation amongst the characters. I‘ll stay with the series but I expect better. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I tend to feel a little guilty bailing on ARCs, but I gave this 320 page novel about 70 pages and I‘d rather pop my eyeballs out than read any more. The tone is patronizing and the author over-explains/mansplains nearly everything. It‘s tedious and a little insulting.
