Murder at Brighton Beach

A Ginger Gold Mystery, Book 13

By: Lee Strauss

Narrated by: Elizabeth Klett

Murder's a beach!

A family holiday turns deadly at Brighton Beach.

When Ginger and Basil and their family check into the Brighton Beach Boutique Hotel on a lovely warm day in June of 1926, a shocking discovery upsets their plans to relax in the sun and surf. There’s a murderer amongst the holidayers: Is it the starlet? The earl? The disgruntled businessman?

In this Agatha Christie-style addition to the Ginger Gold Mystery series, not only will Ginger not finish her book, she and Basil might not get out of the hotel alive.

A little disappointing

I like Elizabeth Klett’s narration very much and I have been very fond of Ginger, Basil, Scout and Bos. The other two family members—not so much. But in this book I found Ginger to be very annoying, too. She was very tactless at times. Not like her at all. The story didn’t really conclude according to what I have always considered the rules of mystery writing, that is to answer all the questions. But I still anxiously await the next book which I am guessing features Coco.

Great

It seems hard for the family to enjoy a holiday at the beach when a murdered body is found. What are Ginger and Basil to do? Solve it of course!

Another great story!!

surprise ending

English accent narration took a few chapters to get used to. A bit too much setting description at the beginning.
