Etched in Tears by Cheryl Hollon is the fourth book in the Webb's Glass Shop Mystery series. I adore this series. I have read the previous books, but it is not necessary to enjoy this one. Savannah's first high school boyfriend, Dennis, returns to Florida for an art show. She barely has a chance to speak to him before his is whisked away only to end up dead before morning. Savannah agrees to help the police as an art consultant, but she gets pulled in much deeper. She and her friends set out to solve Dennis' murder. The glass shop setting is fun, but Jacob (an apprentice) and Suzy (his service dog) are easily my favorite part of the series. I am already looking forward to the next book!
Lynn Cahoon's Of Murder and Men is the third book in the Cat Latimer Mystery series. Cat finds herself pulling more than her weight at the writers' retreat when her business partner, Shauna, falls madly in love. The final straw is when Shauna fails to show up to prepare breakfast. When it turns out that Shauna's boyfriend has been murdered, Cat is pulled into yet another mystery. She juggles this new one while continuing to work on solving her ex-husband's murder. While this book can stand on its own, reader would benefit from having read the previous two books. I enjoy this series for the characters and setting. I especially liked the crossover with a character from the author's other series, Tourist Trap Mystery series.
Altered to Death by Christina Freeburn is the sixth book in the Faith Hunter Scrap This series. Faith is busy planning her wedding and putting together a scrapbook of the town's history. The mystery of what happened to the founding family is puzzling enough, but then a body is unearthed at the family's abandoned mansion. I read this book in less than a day. The story moved quickly, and the book was hard to put down. The mystery and sub-plots had several twists and turns that kept me guessing until the end. While this is the first book I have read in this series, it will not be the last.
disclosure: I received these e-books through NetGalley but was not otherwise compensated for these reviews. All opinions are my own!
