This is 3rd in a series, following The Damage Done and The Next One To Fall, featuring Lily Moore, a travel journalist.
Lily is offered the chance to travel to Acapulco, to write a piece on one of the local hotels. The hotel, once the place where the elite used to go to for sun, sand and tropical drinks, is now like a ghost-town. No guests, empty rooms, little staff, and armed guards disturbs her.... especially when she finds the hotel is owned by her ex-boyfriend, but is being run by his second in command.
While there, she runs into another journalist who says she has a lead into a story that will take down the hotelier, and wants Lily to help her. Then she disappears, only to be found murdered a day later. Then Lily finds she is actually being held against her will and not allowed to leave.
I've enjoyed the series. Lily has what I'd call a fun job ... traveling around the globe, staying in exotic hotels, and being paid to write about her experiences. She's a strong woman, dealing with a few issues, and half in love with a tattooed cop.
The characters are well done ... some are quirky, like her best friend; some are sneaky like the woman who makes all the arrangements, and some are just downright evil.
I would recommend, as usual, to start with Book One in the series.
