My rating ~ 4 bites and a nibble
Blake Harper owns
Mystery Cup, a coffee joint and tasty bakery in a little town in Missouri made
famous by some murders committed eons ago. People come from far and wide to
take in the murder-y atmosphere. However, when Blake’s crappy barista gets
whacked in her café’s kitchen Blake is not only justifiably upset, she’s
determined to figure out who did it and why. It doesn’t matter that the
investigation is headed by her own sister and she’s been told to back off more
than once, Blake just cannot leave things alone. And we all know that never
leads to good things, right?
What an excellent cozy
mystery! I will say that Blake gets on my nerves just a tiny bit, with her
snooping and such, but I actually do like her gumption and her humor. The
mystery of “who” kept me guessing all the way to the end and I have to say I
did not see that coming. I did, however,
figure out the connection before Blake did, so I will pat myself on the back
for that. Now that the murder is solved we need to get down to the nitty gritty
here. How is Blake going to choose between the two men who have shown up in
town, wanting to date her? Of course, I’m not asking her to rush to a decision
and hope to see both men in future books. They each have their strengths, so I
hope she dates them for awhile before she makes a decision. I know which Team I’m
on, but I’m not sayin’. Yet. So there.
