The most predictable mystery I've ever read. Guessed the killer from the very beginning. So happy David is back though!

I liked this book a lot to the point of giving it 5 stars precisely because it's more of the same. Eleanor Swift is yet again a suspect. She's the definite Usual Suspect. She most solve the case to survive and drag her business to survival. So she's more motivated than the usual pro super sleuth and it's worth reading how she uncovers her culprit or how the murderer feels the heat so much that he/she uncovers herself out of urgency. This is the book that made me see a pattern for guessing identities in this series. One of the books I'm most likely to re read.

In A Pizza to Die For, Eleanor finds her livelihood under attack from a new pizza parlor about to open. The death of her competition puts Eleanor squarely in the frame for his murder. Of course, this leads her to open her own investigation to clear her name and keep A Slice of Delight from going under. This book and in fact all the books in the series I have read so far are notable for the way the relationships between the characters are developed. Realistic dialog and reactions drive the character interactions. The small town setting is charming and the mystery is well done. Another winner in this series!

I really enjoy this series, but thought the killer was WAY too obvious in this one.

The mystery part was good but there were too many character and timeline inconsistencies in my opinion to rate it any higher.

When the owner of a rival pizza place gets killed Eleanor and Maddy become suspects. They then set out to find out who the real killer is. Along the way they become acquainted with the dead guy's uncle and sister and create a new pizza (Chicago style deep dish). Romance improves for both of them. They figure out who the killer is in the end before the police do and risk their lives.
