A fun read--I love older lady protagonists! This one is also filled with delicious food, which makes for a combination I just cannot resist.

The writing is often hard to follow, sometimes switching between points of view and narrators with no indication of who is the new speaker. Although unpleasant, I could deal with it. However, I could not deal with the death of the dog. That was unnecessary and destroyed the book for me. Also, I could not determine how, aside from Mrs. Potter, this related to the first book. The clues to the killer and the motives were flimsy at best and then for Rodney to kill himself after all of that was not necessarily a surprise. What was a surprise was him killing his own mother for having a new boyfriend. And attempting to kill Mrs. Potter because she smiled at him and he thought she was laughing at him? Absurd. I will not be continuing with this series.

NOT as good as the first book. Took me over a month of avoidance to finish this book. I enjoyed the first one so much, I felt I had to finish this one. I can't quite put my finger on what was keeping me from finishing this book. Perhaps that it seemed so much more serious than the first one.
Eugenia Potter is now at her Maine home where she's not exactly an outsider but not quite accepted either. In fact, many of the island's teenagers seem to be giving her the cold shoulder, which proves to be very awkward as she tries to explain that she is having problems. But then the deaths start to occur and the scope seems to be aiming toward her.
