Great read, good mystery.

Good narration, good twist to mystery, and great plot. I enjoyed this book enough to want to read more by this author.

Lots of questions

Entertaining cozy mystery with a thick headed heroine. It's an easy read for a Sunday afternoon.

Not my cup of tea

I did not finish this book. Seemed more work than pleasure. Characters annoying. Maybe it would have been acceptable if I had.
