Water Like a Stone by Deborah Crombie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
#11 in the Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James series. They have loaded the family (two children and two dogs) into the car and are heading to the English countryside to spend the Christmas week with Duncan's parents. Two separate murders interrupt their restful holiday celebration, and they both join the hunt to solve the cases. I was enthralled to learn about the narrow boats which populate the canals throughout England, serving a houseboats for entire families. I definitely felt a 'sense of place' of small town country English - delightful! It was also nice to get the back story of Duncan's parents, sister, niece and nephew. Deborah Crombie is an excellent storyteller!
