Goodreads Summary:
A fun, sexy, murder-mysteryromance for all teen sleuths!
Aphra Behn Connolly has the type of life most teenage girls envy. She lives on a remote tropical island and spends most of her time eavesdropping on the rich and famous. The problem is that her family's resort allows few opportunities for her to make friends, much less to meet cute boys. So when a smoldering Seth Mulo arrives with his parents, she's immediately drawn to him. Sure, he's a little bit guarded, and sure his parents are rather cold, and okay he won't say a word about his past, but their chemistry is undeniable. Then a famous rock star's girlfriend turns up dead on the beach, strangled by her own bikini top, and alarm bells sound. Is it too great a coincidence that Seth's family turned up just one day before a murder? As the plot thickens, Aphra finds that danger lurks behind even the most unexpected of faces. . . .

Review:
I made the mistake a year ago to read one of these books, however it was the third book and much of it at the time didn't make sense. After finishing instead of going to the first book I went backwards and read the second book. Now one year later I thought hey might as well finish the series and read the first book! I must say that now that I have read this one, everything else in the series makes total sense now.
Anyway, this is a nice short and easy read. I think that anyone who is into the whole teenage spy thing might like it. Be warned though it starts out as just a mystery story, you won't get to the spyish stuff until the second book. All in all, it was a pretty good book so go check it out.
