In her twelfth Carol Ashton mystery, McNab continues her award-winning style. Ashton attends an F.B.I. training course, and finds herself the suspect when a man with whom she argued vehemently is found dead. Surrounded by a group of other suspects, the detective must sift through the clues and clear herself. Her only ally is a female F.B.I. agent who has more on her mind than simply helping to clear Carol. Although typical of books from the Naiad Press, this story still features excellent pacing and a lively assortment of suspects.

It was a fun read. It offered a new look at the detective outside of her familiar home land of Australia. The story kept me wondering till the end.
