Elena Estes, a former cop, now works at a horse stable. She goes for a walk and discovers a groom, Irina that she works with dead in a canal. Elena investigates Irina's death and helps the police. Irina was Russian and the Russian mob appears to be involved. This was a page turner with an unexpected ending. ( )

This is a book that revolves around the Palm Beach elite and the lengths that they are prepared to go to protect their own. Some of the people they class as their own are a group of powerful and wealthy Palm Beach bad boys, who call themselves the Alibi Club, a name that is self explanatory. In any other society they would have been locked up a long time ago and the key thrown away, but this group have a knack of escaping the law. Well escaping the law is one thing, but escaping justice is another.

In Alibi Man, a young woman who tends to horses working at an affluent estate is killed. Elena Estes finds the body. A former cop, she begins to do her own investigation of the murder. Meanwhile, Detective Landrey, Elena's love interest is also performing an investigation. The investigation leads to a group of ultra-wealthy, socially elite individuals who have a club, which will always give an alibi to one of their members. At the heart of this book is class warfare. The members of the upper crust in this novel believe they can do whatever they want without any repercussions. Elena and Landrey are there to see that this doesn't happen. The novel is solidly written with enough intrigue to sustain interest. There's nothing about it that really stands out, but it is an entertaining read.

For some reason I did not finish this book. Strange because I rarely never finish a book and Tami Hoag is one of my favourite authors

Quick read mystery about the amoral super rich. Nothing great, but good book to pass a slow half day with. ( )
