This is quite good fun - although some of the issues that I had with Kenni not being competent enough at her job have reoccurred. As I've said before, making Kenni the sheriff gives her a good solid reason to be investigating murders, but I like my heroes/heroines to act professionally - and using her deputy as her potential love interest doesn't reflect well on Kenni. I also found the ongoing reelection story line a little grating. But aside from that, the mystery is good, and I can forgive a lot for a good mystery.
I keep reading these hoping that the issues I have with them will be ironed out because I really like the premise, but then they frustrate me because they're not as good as they could be, so maybe I'll check in in a few books time to see whether anything has changed.
