Summary

A quaint island resort. A murder on a quiet beach. Can a brand new inspector solve the case?

Detective Inspector David Graham has just arrived on the island of Jersey, with orders to take over the constabulary in the small resort town of Gorey. But molding this rag-tag team of misfits into a cohesive investigative unit may be a greater challenge than he bargained for....

Within minutes, Graham’s plans go awry. A local resident, former soldier Colonel Graves, makes a shocking discovery. As the military man kneels down on the beach, he is horrified to see the corpse of his soon-to-be fiancé half-buried in the sand....

The Case of the Hidden Flame is the second book in this best-selling traditional British detective mystery series with a modern twist. It packs humor and intrigue into a fiendishly clever puzzle that mystery fans will love–all accompanied by a fine cup of tea.

Brilliant

I feel that got to know him even more now. What you thought would be a quiet little police station turns out to be busy when on his very first day of arrival. I like the way you get know the new characters and then as the story delvops you see where each ones place is and how they come together. Made you think was not obvious who was the murder.

Death in paradise

I loved this book. It sort of reminded me of the tv show Death in paradise or more in particular the spin off series Beyond paradise, so much so that I think I started picturing them as the characters, what fun. I loved the interactions between the characters, especially the lengths they go to impress there new boss or out do each other, I hope that continues. The story is on the short side but to be honest it didn't feel that way and I felt you got your monies worth with this investigation. I liked how it wasn't obvious what killed her and there was even some debate over it being suicide, couldn't see it myself but as a training exercise it worked. There was plenty of suspects and like the first case I had no clue who the killer was. Off to start the next book.
Detective Inspector David Graham tired of the big city has moved to Jersey for a quieter life but before he can even unpack or meet his new colleagues he is called to a murder scene. An elderly former soldier has just discovered his fiance dead and buried on the beach. As the first murder investigation on the island in years the only way to find out if his new colleagues are up to the challenge is to learn on the job. Can they dig up a murderer?
I liked the narrator. He made the story fun and enjoyable and I hope he sticks with the series.
