Left with only a single clue that leads her to Lisbon, Aventurine Morrow must attempt to follow it to determine what has happened to her brother-in-law. Was he lost at sea while soloing the Atlantic, as everyone has assumed over the past two years? Or is there something more nefarious happening?
Price range: $18.99 through $28.99
Observing an uneasy truce with her sister Micheline and nephew Paul, Avi searches blindly for some—any—information to solve this heartbreaking and terrifying puzzle. She finds a surprising source of aid from sometime-nemesis, DCI Dominic Burroughs; at the same time, she’s seemingly thwarted at every turn by her half-sister Nicola, whose aims are unclear, but increasingly cruel.
When things heat up in Portugal, Aventurine and her friends are forced to flee, back to the seaside village of Whitby in the north of England, where everything comes to a head, and they discover that all they thought they knew is an illusion.

An avid pickleball player, I liked his knowledge of the game and use of the courts in the mystery. He also does a good job of incorporating the customs and local characters in Maui. Mark keeps getting deeper in trouble and must fight for his life on many fronts and ensure his wife’s safety.
I like Mark and Sophie. Lots of action. I was critical of the number of times a wife would let her husband play his sport while on vacation with her. I would not like it. I do like this author and have read many of his books.
