Operation Nassau

Operation Nassau

By Dorothy Dunnett

Genre:-Classic Crime/Women Sleuths/Humour

Pages:-304

Publisher:-Farrago

Blurb:-Doctor B. McRannoch is in the Bahamas with her father who has moved there from Scotland because of asthma. She is a savvy and tough young woman who shows much independence of mind and spirit.

 However, when Sir Bart Edgecome, a British agent who has been poisoned with arsenic falls ill on his way back from New York, she becomes involved in a series of events beyond her wildest imagination.

 Drawn into an espionage plot with multiple suspects, it is only the presence of enigmatic portrait painter Johnson Johnson on his yacht, Dolly, that saves the day. But nothing is quite as straightforward as it at first seems.

My Review:-This is Book Four in 'A Dolly Mystery' and I've had the pleasure of reading and reviewing the first three books in the series. In this book we head to Bahamas and Nassau the capital. Dr B. McRannoch is from Scotland, but moved to Bahamas to look after her dad. Dr McRannoch is working now at the main hospital. Dr McRannoch saves a man's life, but it's not just any man, he's a member of Her Majesty's Secret Service, and that's when everything changes. At the same time Johnson Johnson is also in town investigating an attempted murder on Dolly, Johnson's Yacht. This is how Dr McRannoch help's Johnson keep Sir Bart Edgecombe from being killed. We also get to meet a few other characters, an army sergeant major, famous painter, a ballet dancer, a golfer, a builder. Could one of these be a killer or maybe something else!

 If you haven't read any of 'A Dolly Mystery' you need to. This Book can be read as a standalone and has everything you want in a good book.
