Product Description

Product Description
Returning to L'Escala, the idyllic Spanish village where they were once so happy, Oz Blackstone and Primavera Phillips are looking to forget the past. But old ghosts are not so easy to placate, and the shadow of Oz's childhood sweetheart Jan, now tragically dead, is threatening to turn their relationship into a seething cauldron of recrimination. Until a body turns up face down in the swimming pool of their new villa, and suddenly they are very much back in the harness again. Faced with the indifference of the local police, Oz and Prim are forced to investigate the murder themselves, and soon they begin to uncover a nest of vipers beneath L'Escala's sunny exterior...

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Author of Crime fiction in the Country, 25 Mar 2002
This review is from: On Honeymoon with Death (Hardcover)
I am a great fan of jardines books and to me is the crime fiction writer in the world this book still lives up to these expections. As it has an intricately woven plot set in the beautiful landscape of l'escala the characters are entermested in a web of deception.
one of his best books if you enjoy it read the rest. It is a wonder why the autor quintin Jardine isn't better known.

3.0 out of 5 stars Is the honeymoon over for Oz Blackstone?, 17 Aug 2007
By D. M. Bennett (Aberdeen, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The next in the Oz Blackstone series sees Oz and his new wife Primavera return to a small village in Spain, where they had previously separated, for their honeymoon. Right from the outset this is a plan which seems doomed to failure and predictably this is what happens. The places described are curiously similar to those in Jardine's other main line of books about Bob Skinner. The storyline is engaging and the plot does thicken as the book progresses. This book seems to be weaker than previous Blackstone mysteries however and I wonder if the honeymoon for this character is truly over.

1.0 out of 5 stars oh dear!, 16 Oct 2002
I suppose you could say that the characterization in this book is good, as I absolutely HATED Oz Blackstone by the end of Chapter Two. Collosal self-regard seems to sum him up. I felt that the author's portrayal of Primavera, Oz's wife,was patronisingly mysogynous. The writing style is dated & pretentious: after, after Ian Fleming. I got bored with the old hat, ludicrously convoluted plot very early on, read the last page & threw the book in the bin, to join the 2 previous novels by this guy. Basically 'writing by numbers'. Sorry! not for me.
