Too predictable.....
I am a cozy mystery fan but found this one over the top predictable and the characters seemed 2D. The narrator read well but the voices of two main characters ruined it for me . The boyfriend sounded too geeky to be an ex-army handyman and the retreat chef/friend too fake and monotone. I've liked Ms. Calhoun's other books so I would consider the next one in the series but borrowed from the library.
