Publisher Description
The charming Hillside Manor is the perfect B&B for a few days of R&R. Okay, so it also features the occasional corpse or two. But is a small body count really any reason for the state to yank Judith McMonigle Flynn's innkeeper's license? Exhausted from answering the nosy critics from the state B&B association, Judith needs a change of scenery. Volunteering to help out at the State B&B booth during Oktoberfest is just the opportunity she's looking for. But before the beer begins flowing, Judith finds a dead body. Unfortunately, Judith's reputation has preceded her, and the local police chief wants her help. So Judith hits on a brilliant idea: her cousin Renie will pose as the sleuth. Now, what could possibly go wrong?

"This book is filled with slapstick humor and fast paced events that keeps you guessing till the end. The main character with her wacky sidekick have a habit of coming across murders present and past, She keeps you on your toes basicly waiting for what will happen next."
— Nancy (4 out of 5 stars)
The Wurst is Yet to Come Listener Reviews
-
" this series is always a good read. "
— Claire, 2/20/2014 -
" I consider these stories to be cheap diversions and enjoy spending a little time with them. I continue to be put off by the bad attitude and actions of the 'sidekick' in this series put the stories are entertaining enough to move forward with the series. "
— Nikki, 2/13/2014 -
" While I have enjoyed most of the books in this B&B series, this book left a lot to be desired. There seemed to be an inordinate amount of emphasis on Serena's snarkiness and the humor was contrived. Not very believable.....what police chief would push an inn keeper to solve his case for him? Not the worst cozy mystery, but certainly far from the best! "
— Ricki, 2/9/2014 -
" It just did not make me want to sit and read or listen to it. Twists & turns but not good enough for me to read another of her books. "
— Pat, 2/6/2014 -
" meh. too much of renie in this book. I do not like her. and the plot is odd. don't bother with this one "
— Ferne, 2/3/2014 -
" I enjoy this fairly frivolous series with a bed and breakfast owner. Not really mysteries but fun reads. "
— Mysteryfan, 1/16/2014 -
" Kind of rollicking. "
— Ruth, 12/7/2013 -
" Pretty disappointed in this book. I have read the entire series, but this one was very confusing character wise and just not up to par with the others. "
— Toshellbell, 9/29/2013 -
" Could not even finish. I've read others but this one was just over the top annoying--as if anything that made the series interesting was removed and only the parts I never liked left in. "
— Bonnie, 9/20/2013 -
" Judith and Renie visit Octoberfest, where the beloved village patriarch falls dead. Of course, Judith must investigate amid the beer tents, oompah bands, and bratwurst. Fans of this long running series will not be disappointed in Judith's newest adventure. "
— Chi, 9/5/2013 -
" I just started it a little while ago...never read any Daheim before "
— Lisa, 7/23/2013 -
" This isn't Daheim's best mystery in my view, but loved the setting in a Bavarian-type resort town during Octoberfest. "
— Vera, 6/28/2013 -
" More wacky characters than normal and it seems like Renie was especially cantankerous in this one. Still, a fun mystery. "
— Michelle, 3/15/2013 -
" This was a fun read because it was located in Leavenworth a small town north of my home. Would be better if the cousins weren't so grumpy all the time. "
— Carol, 1/12/2013 -
" I love this writer. All her books are worth the read. "
— Jennifer, 12/7/2012 -
" true, gets a lower mark for the over-bearing rudeness by renie and judith "
— Sharon, 10/21/2012 -
" I didn't even finish the first chapter before I decided that the characters were amazingly unpleasant and that I didn't have time to waste reading about them. I rarely give up on a book, but I gave up on this one. "
— Cyn, 10/19/2012 -
" The editing, grammatical errors and excessive descriptions of place not relevant to the plot made for an abysmal read. I didn't enjoy this at all and I won't be finishing it. "
— Ariane, 7/31/2012 -
" A fun mystery, altho I don't love the main characters. "
— Vicki, 7/18/2012
