In the life of Tytti Vertainen - a woman duly proud of her egalitarian Finland - there is never a dull moment. When a tip-off letter is left in her pocket, Tytti discovers a murder has been committed on the island. But whose? As a journalist at the Tapiolinna Times, Tytti is in prime position to investigate. With her usual resourcefulness and unerring intuition, Tytti puts herself in peril as she digs up secrets, some would rather be left kept buried. The Lazy Days of Temptation is a novel set among the shallow seas and lofty pines of Finland. Detective work soon supplants the frequent cups of coffee as Tytti, jolted from her everyday routine, sets out to find a murderer.
