Carole and Jude’s Turkish holiday takes a murderous turn in the new Fethering mystery Carole Seddon has never enjoyed holidays much. Nevertheless, she has allowed herself to be persuaded by her friend Jude to accept a fortnight’s free accommodation at a luxurious Turkish villa owned by Jude’s property developer friend Barney Willingdon. But from the outset the holiday is marred by a series of menacing incidents: threatening messages daubed on the villa walls; and their host being accosted by a knife-wielding man at a local restaurant. As Carole and Jude launch into what they do best - investigating - it becomes clear that Barney Willingdon has made plenty of enemies, with his ruthless business deals and complicated love life.

And what really did happen to Barney’s first wife, Zoe?

He's one of the five authors I would take to a desert island. So realize as I write this review of his newest Fethering mystery that I am a huge fangirl. All that said, I think this one lives up to what I've come to expect of him. It's fun and twisty and the characters are colorful. Jude is as free a spirit as you'll ever meet and Carole is as uptight as a person can get. Does traveling together really seem like a good idea?Jude gets the opportunity to use the villa of an old friend for a vacation. The villa happens to be in Turkey. Carole is not at all sure that this makes any sense, she hates to leave her granddaughter and she's sure she will be sick the whole time but after much shilly-shallying she decides to go. Packing her Imodium, of course. As she suspects, the old friend is an ex-boyfriend of Jude's who's wife is a bit on the jealous side. Jude starts to wonder if she's made a terrible decision, inviting Carole to go. It should be a great vacation. I love to travel so the plot already had me intrigued. It does, however, have a little different feel than most of his other writing because usually his books are so very British and this is set in Turkey.There are murders, there are suspects galore, there are weird neighbors, there is an exotic setting and there is the fabulously witty writing of Simon Brett. I thoroughly enjoyed it.I received this from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review but I would have bought it when it came out if I hadn't been able to get it from them. Yeah, lifelong fan of Simon Brett.

Exceptional story with exceptional writing By Gordon Review of The Tomb in Turkey by Simon BrettAlthough not too often, a book comes along unexpectedly that just takes over all of one’s free time. You think about the characters; you visualize the settings; you marvel at the writing and you wonder about where the plot will take you and when you may return to reality. The Tomb in Turkey is certainly that kind of book and so far it is one of the best books I have read in 2014.This hooked me from the very beginning with the oil-water relationship between long time neighbors Carole Seddon and Jude and the simmering feuds over whether to take advantage of a two-week free holiday in an exotic country. Jude, the free spirit of the two was more than willing to jump in and would welcomingly take things, as they would come. Carol, always uptight and could never seem to relax about anything, held Jude hostage by withholding her consent to agree to go on the holiday until the very last minute.Carole and Jude were amateur detectives and were put into a situation of trying to determine the motive and operation of a murder while vacationing in Turkey. During the course of their investigation they began to be intuitive and at times daring causing greater emotional hardships to Carole but more welcoming adventure to Jude. Although the two merged better as the adventitious investigation continued, after the crime was solved, I got the impression they both reverted to their former selves once back in their homeland of England.I could not find anything about this book that I did not like. Simon Brett was faultless as an author and he is one that I will read again and talk to others about. This book’s impression will be with me for a long time to come.This story is worth every bit and more of a 5 star rating.

The overuse of words and phrases gives this book a formulaic voice, almost as if someone is trying to write in Brett's style and not quite pulling it off. Jude and Carol are reduced to cliches, and the mystery is weak. Nothing of substance happens until halfway into the book. A disappointment to this fan of the Fethering series.
