Deadly Cool by Gemma Halliday

Deadly Cool (Deadly Cool, #1)

by Gemma Halliday

First I find out that my boyfriend is cheating on me. Then he's pegged as the #1 suspect in a murder. And now he's depending on me to clear his name. Seriously? As much as I wouldn't mind watching him squirm, I know that he's innocent. So I'm brushing off my previously untapped detective skills and getting down to business. But I keep tripping over dead bodies and I'm still no closer to figuring out who did it. And what's worse: all signs seem to point to me as the killer's next victim. I really need to pick a better boyfriend next time.

I started this book ages ago and just couldn't get into it, but picked it up again this week and flew through it. It's not the best mystery book out there but it's not really the worst either. I didn't really like any of the characters, Hartley is more or less an idiot. But the mystery was okay, there were some good one liners and it wasn't painful to get through, just ridiculous. If you like Gemma Halliday's Spying in High Heels you'll like this. It's pretty much the same characters, just younger.
