Poison by Punctuation

 

High school teacher Emma Lovett is finally recovering from her first year of teaching when she discovers another dead body. As if that wasn’t bad enough, this time, someone has killed a student, Kisten Hollis.

Emma and her best friend, Leslie, are desperate to solve this murder. But suspects abound. The perpetrator could be a teacher, an administrator, a member of Kisten’s zealous church community, or even another student.

Emma must juggle her teaching responsibilities, her new romance with handsome Hunter Wells, and interest from a hunky second suitor, all while searching for evidence to bring a killer to justice before someone else dies.

Emma Lovett and her best friend Leslie Parker are teachers at Thomas Jefferson High School in Pinewood, Colorado. Emma’s first year there had her and Leslie solving a murder and nearly becoming victims themselves. So, you’d think they’d want to lay low from now on. Right? Ah. Nope. Emma starts her second year at TJ High trying to solve the murder of student Kisten Hollis before anyone else dies. Between her teaching duties, her sleuthing, and her dating life, Emma is a busy woman. But busy is better than dead, right?


I’m really liking the start of this series. I really enjoyed book 1, so I anticipated liking book 2. I was correct! The world-building is great, the characters well-rounded, and the plots so far are twisty enough for me to work overtime on the brain noodling. An all-around thoroughly enjoyable way to pass the time.
