Murder by Cheesecake
by Rachel Ekstrom Courage
Picture it, Sicily…
Actually no, picture it… a St Olaf wedding in Miami with murder! This is what the first Golden Girls mystery dishes up and I was hanging onto every page in delight!!
Rose’s niece is getting married, and rather than elope Rose promises to arrange the wedding plans… in Miami! It’s going to be a very traditional St Olaf wedding in Miami, with donkeys and ostriches and everything! That is until interfering in-laws get in the way and a murder victim, that is none other than Dorothy’s date!!! What follows is mystery and mayhem and the kind that only the Golden Girls can solve!
Ever since I discovered cozy mysteries I feel like I’ve been dreaming about this book! I grew up watching Golden Girls episodes on re-runs. Now in my 40’s I absolutely love curling up with a blanket and a tub of ice-cream and re-watching episodes. There is something about these women that is absolutely timeless and also perfect for cozy mystery mayhem!
The mystery was splendid. The reader gets caught up with all the antics that happen during a wedding [because it can never run smoothly], especially with Rose Nylund as wedding planner!! Add in a murder, with multiple suspects, including Dorothy, and I couldn’t put it down for a second!!
If you love cozies you need to pick this one up. Grab a cheesecake or ice-cream and settle in for a walk down memory lane with the Golden Girls. You will feel like you’re back in the 80’s with this timeless read!
