I commend this author to you and feel in Death on the Beach that Anna Johannsen, has announced herself fully into the world of crime fiction.

Beach as police close Body found washed up on Southsea Beach as police close

Throughout it all, Lena showed her tenacious character to finally reveal who committed this heinous crime. I also felt that the book could have focused on the investigation and not the detectives personal life.When a body is discovered on a local beach, this tight knit and closed off community features a host of suspects. He doesn't seem to want to take no for an answer and yet at the same time, Lena is sending out mixed signals. I want to start by saying this is not a bad book, this review is based solely on personal enjoyment. A great setting which really gives you the flavour of how many secrets can be hidden on a small Island.

It is interesting to note that Lena’s own complicated private life becomes entangled in her professional investigation, which for me added to the enjoyment of the plot. It would have been interesting to get to know some of them a little more, such as Leon, the grumpy hacker whiz. He finds that the mysterious radio signal is the result of a broken window sash swinging in the breeze and occasionally hitting a telegraph key. On the Beach is an apocalyptic novel published in 1957, written by British author Nevil Shute after he emigrated to Australia.However, I enjoyed the characters and the unique setting, and I would love to read additional books in this series. In preparation for this journey, the submarine makes a shorter trip to port cities in northern Australia, including Cairns, Queensland, and Darwin, Northern Territory; no survivors are found. Although Whitman's poem resembles the plot of Shute's novel, the book does not reference it, as it does Eliot's poem.
