Wat is dit toch een heerlijke serie,een misdrijf die tot het eind de spanning erin houd wie het gedaan heeft.
Oever van argwaan is een goed gekozen titel omdat je iedereen gaat verdenken in het boek.
Ook de mensen in de serie sluit je in je hart,op naar deel 4.

Another enjoyable read though the ending was a bit of a stretch not so much in being realistic but for the setting of the Refuge series.
The main murder plot though kept the reader in suspense, the sub-plot of Sadie's mom was so so and don't want to say more as to be a spoil but thought it was let's just say just to quick, better if stretched over two book.
In summary I'm enjoying the Refuge series but it seems to have lost the small southern town simplicity. Blackstock seems to be almost wishing the small town was more of a large town to allow more sensationalistic drama, the map of Cape Refuge found in the first two books was missing from this book as if wanting the reader to loose the the image of Cape Refuge's smallness. I may be over show more critical but then again I'm as my wife says I'm a tough customer.
Plan to read Breaker's Reef right away just to perhaps get the Refuge series done. I do hope it returns to a more simpler plot.
