Night Diver (2014) - Plot & Excerpts

This novel was a lot more romance and a lot less mystery than what I was expecting but overall was an enjoyable read. The "who done it" mystery sort of unfolded more so than the characters actually investigating and figuring it out. As for the romance part I did enjoy the relationship the characters bill but also found it a little bit unrealistic. Would recommend to those who enjoy women's fiction, would be a nice summer read. I got my Elizabeths mixed up when I picked this book up off the new books shelf at the library--I was thinking Elizabeth Berg, not Elizabeth Lowell. This book was interesting and thorough in its background and world-building--the life of contracted boat owners and treasure hunters diving the Caribbean for gold and gems from long-sunk privateers--but the background was a foil for the love story, which was entered into abruptly, occurred at breathtaking speed, and resolved too neatly for my taste. Likewise the main character's journey from traumatized and in denial to competent and fearless was a bit much to believe. I also figured out who the bad guy was early on, simply by paying attention to a character the author was elaborately neglecting to develop. It wasn't bad--but it won't make me pursue other books of Lowell's either. I actually think I read one of her early books and liked it better--Midnight at Ruby Bayou.

What do You think about Night Diver (2014)?

Nice for humid, summer, beach reading. Pleasurable, predictable but details gave it dimension.
