A famous underwater photographer’s abrasive arrogance quickly makes him a pariah to everyone on a week-long spotted dolphin snorkeling/diving trip in the Bahamas.

Once Tom’s body is found, the boat heads for its home port of Miami. When it arrives there, another passenger is dead.
Returning to their small town on the California coast, part-time forensic photographer Cinnamon Greene and her boyfriend Danny are inextricably involved in sorting through shifting alliances, half truths and outright lies to find out who did what to who and why.

We had bought this for my daughter to read when she was going on a trip to the Bahamas to read on the plane... it's been sticking out on my to read shelf because if its unusual size so I decided to give it a shot.
The author was far to focused on what the main character had to eat for my liking.. it seems half the book was describing meals. The mystery itself was OK, a bit of a locked room (in this case, a boat), but there were really only ever a couple suspects, and the resolution was a bit disappointing.
Quite a few of the characters had big, abrupt turns in personality when the situation warranted, like a big blinking sign that said 'here is the bad guy'. The main character had a bit of a love triangle going on as well, but it never really went anywhere. It turned out her current boyfriend was upset about an unrelated issue and I guess was just taking it out on her.
Not the worst book ever (it turned the pages for sure) but nothing to write home about either.

Great idea combining a murder mystery and diving. Lots of action and good story line.

"A famous underwater photographer’s abrasive arrogance quickly makes him a pariah to everyone on a week-long boat trip in the Bahamas to snorkel with spotted dolphins and scuba dive on fish filled reefs. When Tom Tiburon goes missing far from shore, however, passengers and boat crew launch a frantic search to find him, even as a hurricane bears down on them. Once Tom’s body is found, the boat heads for its home port of Miami. When it arrives there, another passenger is dead. As they return to their small town on the California coast, part-time forensic photographer Cinnamon Greene and her boyfriend Danny are inextricably involved in sorting through shifting alliances, half-truths and outright lies to find out who did what to who and why."
I didn't thing that much of this book. I am a boater and a lot of what was going on in the boat didn't seem to me that real or believable. The characters, at least to me, were boring. They ended up being way to intertwined by the time the story ended to be real live people! I did finish the story, didn't take long to read (maybe a day) --- and, didn't fall asleep so maybe a skin-diver would enjoy it more then I did! I really enjoyed how the two bottle-nosed dolphins brought the missing person back to the boat and how they intermingled with the people.

A really excellent read, fast paced and hard to put down. Cinnamon is very much a modern woman who is not afraid of trying almost anything. The mystery certainly holds the reader's attention and the resolution is surprising. Ready for the next book in the series.

When the obnoxious person on their dive boat disappears, Cinnamon thought it was an accident. When the body is discovered, it was murder
