I love the characters in this book, the dry humor, and the many twists in a plot that remains accessible yet full of surprises. I also really enjoyed the many different view points and the short chapters that made it easy to pick this book up and read for a few minutes or a few hours. A perfect mystery for me (and really more than one mystery solved). I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

I liked this. It was a cozy mystery, with a wonderful cast of old characters. Quite refreshing seeing elderly people in the center of a book.
I will say this did nothing extraordinary for me - yes it was enjoyable, but I will not continue on in the series. I think this book can stand on it's own very well.

Frankly disappointing. Very clunky writing, 2D Characters, and the plot gets easily lost.
