Alaskan diner owner Charlie Cookie and a couple of her friends, deputized by "Trooper," the town's own law enforcement official, gets another chance to investigate when a vendor and former childhood friend is murdered at the fairgrounds. This one doesn't work quite as well as the previous installment, and we see that Trooper is able to call in back-up from other places so it makes their deputization seem unnecessary although no one ever suggests it as such. There's not enough diner or cat in this installment and too much imagination to stretch when it comes to believing Charlie and her friends are serving as official deputies. ( ) Alaska, law-enforcement, diner, women-sleuths, murder, murder-investigation, family, family-dynamics, friendship, small-business, small-town***** Charlie Cooke left law school, a career as a chef, and a supercilious ex-boyfriend to go back home to Elkview, Alaska and assumed the running of the family diner. It's a small town and law enforcement is without enough staff and the trooper in town is an old family friend who deputized Charlie and two others to help with investigating only when necessary. Like now when an old friend and vendor has been murdered close by the State Fair grounds. The sleuthing is full of misdirection and red herrings in the beautiful and surprising state of Alaska. Excellent! I requested and received a free ebook copy from Berkley Publishing Group via NetGalley. Thank you! Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

When a local prize-winning farmer is murdered at the state fair, Charlie Cook gets called in to help investigate, but she's shocked to learn the victim is a friend in this latest installment in the Alaskan Diner Mysteries. Charlie Cooke loves many things, like the Bear Claw Diner, the heated steering wheel of her car, and her orange tabby cat Eggs Benedict. Something she has never loved is the state fair. So when her best friend Annie Jensen begs her for a fair day, she's reluctant. But Annie isn't the only one who wants her to spend a day among farm animals and deep fried food. A vendor has been murdered, and Trooper Graham needs his favorite part-time sleuth to dig up the truth, and Charlie is happy to oblige. The case grows personal when Charlie learns the victim is Kelly Carson, whom she and Annie were friends with in high school. If Charlie wants to find justice for Kelly, she and Annie will have to work together to weed out the killer. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
