This was a fun book! The characters were quirky, the dialogue was snarky and crisp and there was a crazy twisty plot!  I just hope it is not a harbinger of what might happen while I am on vacation, since we leave this week for Mexico!

Eleanor Dash, a best selling author, wants to kill off Connor Smith, the main character in her Vacation Mysteries series. She decides that the book tour sponsored by her publisher in Italy is a great time to do some research for her character’s demise. However, the vexing, exasperating, but handsome con man that she based her Connor Smith character on has decided to come along on the book tour and is now claiming there have been several attempts on his life!

As the book tour makes their way from the Coliseum in Rome to the ruins of Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast, it become quite clear that something is terribly wrong and Eleanor must figure out who is trying to kill whom before it is too late!

Eleanor is a funny, stream of consciousness character. The dialogue is quite funny and the interactions between the characters, quite entertaining! This is a fun read and I was laughing out loud as I read through it!
