Lädt ... Muffin But the Truthvon Ellie Alexander
![]() Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. ![]() ![]() I voluntarily agreed to read and honestly review this book. This is my first book by Ellie Alexander, and now I need to go find the series to start from the beginning. Even though I knew it was a Cozy Mystery, it was a lot more enjoyable than others I have read in the past. The descriptions of the murder weren’t over the top, but there were some tense moments in the storyline. This latest offering in the Bakeshop Mystery series features Juliet and her family catering a team event for a high end company. Despite the beautiful forest setting and the comfortable accommodations in the woods, troubles abound as the dysfunctional team members engage in spiteful behaviors. Things heat up for the group when one of their members is found dead. Juliet again involves herself in trying to solve the crime. This book contains a lot of descriptions of how food is prepared, even though the recipes are included at the end. Readers who enjoy this kind of reading will probably gobble this one up, although the endless descriptions can become tedious. (I skipped over them.) This novel seemed to drag out the investigation and did not seem to offer many clues to help readers puzzle out the mystery. Although this is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone. Readers who are returning to this series will find familiar characters and settings. The novel contains no vivid descriptions of violence, no swear words, and no descriptive intimacy. I received this novel from the publisher and from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own. This 16th installment in the Bakeshop Mystery series is only the third one I've read but I had no trouble whatsoever keeping the expanded Torte staff members straight. Another very enjoyable mystery from Ellie Alexander, this one featuring a corporate team bonding river/camping excursion. Lots of nature atmosphere, plus the usual interesting characters, and a clever plot. This cozy is one I'd highly recommend to cozy mystery fans. (I received a copy of this book from the publisher, via Net Galley, in exchange for a fair and honest review.) Zeige 5 von 5 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: In Muffin But the Truth, Torte's pastry chef and amateur sleuth, Juliet Capshaw, finds herself in deep water ... in another delicious installment in the Bakeshop Series from author Ellie Alexander, set in Ashland, Oregon! Ashland is known for its Elizabethan charm and touches of Shakespeare around every corner, but the surrounding Rogue Valley draws adventure enthusiasts to its outdoor wonderland of high alpine lakes, mountain ranges, and pristine rivers. Jules Capshaw and the team at Torte have been hired to cater a weekend getaway on the mighty Rogue River. Jules is going to have to put her culinary skills to the test while baking gooey chocolate chip skillet cookies over an open flame and preparing extravagant feasts under a canopy of stars. The executive team at a big city firm will be rafting the Rogue's rapids and gathering around the campfire for spooky stories, but their dysfunction quickly begins to show. Between constant bickering and heavy drinking, Jules wonders how the team can accomplish anything. She's happy for a brief reprieve when they zip up their lifejackets and head out in their boats, but the serenity of the scene quickly vanishes when Jules discovers one of the execs floating face-down in the water. She's going to have to uncover the truth before she gets pulled under. .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
