The nosey neighbour.
Sadly, I never really engaged with this book. The main character was going through a divorce and was obviously depressed, but she spent her days peering out of her window at the characters who lived near-by, and poking her nose into everybody's business. I just couldn't like her. In fact there wasn't a single character who I could say I actually liked.

Amber hasn't been in the neighbourhood for long but her marriage has broken up and she's alone in the large, luxurious house, amongst people who mostly despise her. It's known that she lusts after another woman's husband and this is hardly going to make her popular. When that woman is found dead, Amber immediately becomes a suspect and uses this as an excuse to be even more infuriating and intrusive.

I assumed that this was the author's first novel, but in fact she has written two mystery series, so I don't feel too bad about being honest. There was no subtlety to the plot and Amber was nosing around well before she had the valid reason of protecting herself from being a suspect.
The narration by Jennifer Blom was fine, a bit slow, but I could have sped it up if I'd chosen to. ( )
