Jill Gardner, the owner of Coffee, Books, and More, has been suckered into playing a '20s flapper in murder/dinner theater. Though it is for charity....

Of course everyone is expecting a "dead" body at the dress rehearsal...but this one isn't acting! It turns out the main suspect is the late actor's conniving girlfriend, Sherry...who also happens to be the ex-wife of Jill's main squeeze. Sherry is definitely a master manipulator...but is she a killer? Jill may discover the truth only when the curtain comes up on the final act...and by then it may be far too late.

Lynn Cahoon writes believable plots with believable characters making each story such a good read. you don't feel guilty taking time out to read.

what is good is even if I was not reading the series in order, you can read each story on their own
However her shorter chapter stories provides some insight into the other books containing more chapters.

Dressed to kill -- great read

I honestly thought it was someone else was the murderer. I enjoy listening to how the main character figures it out.

Another twist

Any additional comments?

Another of my "cozy mysteries". Although a previous reviewer on Audible was irritated by the mention of types of foods and details about Aunt Jackie, I found them to be useful glue and tie-ins for the story. Although often, "cozy mysteries" use the inexperienced unknowing main character to do the actual solving of the murder mystery, this set seems to incorporate her in a more realistic but integral part of the book/books. The actual doer was a character that I wondered about throughout the book but who wasn't just pulled out of the air. I liked it.

Better than a standard "cozy mystery"

South Cove is a quite tourist attraction with some quirky characters as business owners and residents. Jill Gardener and her Aunt Jackie run a successful bookstore and coffee shop. When the bank manager is killed Jill’s boyfriend the police chief tries again to keep her from investigating. Fun series

This is another good book in the series. The characters are engaging and continue to develop. I look forward to the next book.

Another Good Book

It’s an ok story. Average. This was my first book in the series and therefore I found it difficult connecting with all the characters. Without the back history on them, they came across as one dimensional. The plot was a bit typical (i.e., detective boyfriend with nosey girlfriend doing most of his investigation for him). It moved a little slow for me so I skipped to the end and apparently missed the big twist at the end (that some reviewers referred to). The narrator sounded stilted, especially on the male voices. I’ll try another book to see if i can gel with the characters.

Just ok

As I have said before, the series reminds me of Murder She Wrote and Cabot Cove only this heroine, Jill Gardner, ownes the book store in town and has a steady boyfriend in the police chief. Once again Jill, finds herself in the middle of a homicide investigation after being pulled into it by a friend. What makes this cozy enjoyable is character development. The reader learns to care about Jill and the other regulars. That being said, Aunt Jackie's tone changed in this episode. She was harsher which I didn't care for. I have to agree with another reviewer when they said that all the stuff Jill did is something the police should have thought of right away, especially since they worked on the case night and day. That all being said it was an enjoyable read.

reminds me of Murder She Wrote

I really enjoy the simple fun of these books! The mysteries are great and the characters are sweet. I'd live to visit this seaside town and have a drink and pastry at Coffee, Books and More.

Fun as always!
