The League of Literary Ladies is still keeping busy with their reading and their active lives on South Bass Island. They are currently reading Gone With the Wind, but it strikes a sour note because of a new B&B called “Tara” on the island. This new B&B has taken away all of the business from their member Bea Cartwright’s inn.

When local realtor Vivien Frisk is murdered in her late aunt Estelle’s house, the suspects range from the famous twins who own Tara, to a man who was burned in a real estate deal, to various paramours, to the league’s own Chanda – whose husband Vivien stole twenty years before! That leaves it to Bea, Kate and Luella to clear the name of one of their own.

While I’ve long enjoyed Kylie Logan’s other books, this is the first one I’ve read in this series, and now I plan to go back and read the previous four. The mystery is well-plotted, and the cast of characters carefully constructed. I didn’t need to know much of their backgrounds to understand who was who and how their friendships evolved, but it will be interesting to read the first four to discover how things played out.

If you are looking for an enjoyable page-turner, with enough twists to keep you guessing and a satisfying outcome, you won’t go wrong with Gone With The Twins. Highly recommended!
