Cinnamon Bay Plantation on lush, tropical St. John was the ideal Caribbean island getaway. But for distinguished Harvard economist Henry Spearman, it offered diversion of a decidedly different sort and one he'd hardly anticipated: murder. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Prickly and priggish, Gen. Hudson T. Decker (Ret.) might have been a Cinnamon Bay regular, but he'd managed to alienate fellow guests and a lot of townspeople over the years. Suddenly, before the local inspector has assembled a suspect list, there is a mysterious drowning and a second murder, this time a former U.S. Supreme Court justice.

This was my first book by this author and, as an economist, I found it very entertaining. The main character is a fictional university economist who sounds suspiciously like Milton Friedman. He sees everything that people do in their normal lives from an economic perspective and explains the principles that guide us to whoever will listem. He solves the murder case in this manner. It is not your hard-boiled thriller; rather just a light-hearted (even though it is murder) caper.
