Amazon Review:
Cal McGill is a unique investigator and oceanographer who uses his expertise to locate things—and sometimes people—lost or missing at sea. His expertise could unravel the haunting mystery of why, 26 years ago on a remote Scottish beach, Megan Bates strode out into the cold ocean and let the waves wash her away. Megan's daughter, Violet Wells, was abandoned as a baby on the steps of a local hospital just hours before. As McGill is drawn into Violet's search for the truth, he encounters a coastal community divided by obsession and grief, and united only by a conviction that its secrets should stay buried.
Having read the first book called, The Sea Detective, and having enjoyed it, I thought I'd give book 2 a shot.
I was about 130 pages into this one when things were beginning to sound awfully familiar... I read on 50 more pages. Now I felt sure I either read this before OR there are other books with a bunch of similarities . So I donned my detective cowboy hat and dug into my blog... and low and behold ! I HAD read this book 1 12 yrs ago!..and I enjoyed it! Of course that should surprise me since when I read the review from back then .. I enjoyed it! duh.
So knowing I read this I contemplated ... do I read it again? Or do I put it down and begin another book?
When suddenly I realized, I didn't remember how this book ended! GAH! So I "re-read" the entire book... and enjoyed it. *snort*
Both the books by Mark Douglas-Home are well written and very enjoyable.. This goes on the recommended list, and no I am not saying more for a review than Amazon did!.
