Living on a Caribbean island has its drawbacks apparently.

Ashley Grant grew up in Canada but she is now living on a small Caribbean island working as a paramedic. She enjoys what she does and she loves where she lives. Then her parents come for a visit. Her mom is content to sit and read or go for walks on the beach but her dad, recently retired from his career as a plumber, isn't happy without a project. When the resort where Ashley lives has a plumbing crisis her dad is more than happy to help out. After sorting out the plumbing he meets another Canadian man about his age and shares a few beers with him. Ashley thinks this could be the way to keep her dad out of her hair but when the man doesn't show up for a planned lunch date with her dad he is worse than before. And when his body turns up on a remote beach her dad is sure he has been killed even though there is no sign other than that he drowned. Somewhat unwillingly Ashley gets drawn into helping her dad find out what the man was doing the day he died. Although she tries to deflect her dad's interest he is like a bulldog holding onto a leg and he won't let it go. Trouble in Paradise. ( )

This was a great quick read mystery. A man disappears and others work to find him. Unfortunately he is dead when he’s found. As facts emerge the mystery is quickly solved. I appreciate LibraryThing letting me read this book. ( )

Rapid reads guarantees a few hours of entertainment with an engaging story with engaging characters. Ashley, while working on a Caribbean island as a paramedic, invites her parents to visit. Her mother enjoys relaxing by the pool. Her father on the other hand, has a chance encounter with a man who disappears. Believing that something has happened to his new friend, he wants his daughter and her cop friend to investigate. ( )

Rapids Reads collection from Orca books...

This is a quick story about Ashley Grant and her parents, who come to visit her in the Caribbean where she works as a paramedic. He dad makes a friend and then becomes concerned when his new friend doesn’t show up for their plans. Her dad is determined to find out what happened to his friend and drags Ashley into it.

I liked this book, it’s very quick, but very enjoyable! ( )

As a heads-up, this is part of the Rapid Reads line from Orca Books, which are novellas rather than full-length novels. This is the type of book you keep around when reading time is limited.

Ashley Grant is a Canadian paramedic who has relocated to the Caribbean islands. In this book, her parents are visiting, and her bored father starts nosing around after his new friend disappears. I found Coral Reef Views to be an engaging and fun read. Though this is book 3 in a series, it works well as a stand-alone and doesn't require you to start from the beginning of the series (I haven't read the preceding two books and had no difficulties jumping in).

I received a copy from LibraryThing's Early Reviewers group. ( )
