"This is the first book I've read by this author, I read a review on another book reviewers blog, and decided to read this book, not knowing it was the first in this series. This was a delightful little cozy mystery. It was fast moving, funny, and had a few twists and turns, while I was trying to guess 'whodunit.' WOW...What a ride, I loved it and awarded it 5***** I'm sure I will be reading another one of her books in this series somewhere down the cozy mystery road."

" Kind of boring. The main character was rich and bored and had no real reason to get involved in a murder investigation except that she was rich and bored. The mystery and murderer were easy to guess long before they were revealed. "
— Cathi, 9/28/2011 -
