From Publishers Weekly
Francis's ( Button, Button ) third installment of a planned four-part series finds writer Jenny Spaulding and lawyer Peter Darien stranded at a writers' retreat in the California mountains, cut off from civilization when a violent storm washes out the bridge. Soon a publicist is found murdered with a press release in his mouth, a romance writer is electrocuted and her editor is bludgeoned to death and pushed over a cliff. Francis uses every cliche in the book: The romance writer dresses in pink and bows no, she dresses in pink and she dresses in bows/pk and is accompanied everywhere by her Shih Tzu dog; the hero is a "good sport," and the heroine only orders a drink "because liqueurs were served in such pretty glasses." On the other hand, at least Francis uses cliches well. The detection is pedestrian but plausible and the romantic leads, though two-dimensional, are bland enough to be inoffensive. And the author has a sense of self as well as a sense of humor about her craft. As she has the soon-to-be murdered romance writer declaim to Jenny " . . . I'm smart enough to know I've got a formula for success, and I cry all the way to the bank."
