Reviewed by JoAnneReview copy provided by the publisherThis was a mystery in a novella format. There was very little depth to it so it was hard to get involved. There were also too many characters for the length of the story. It was a whodunnit with lots of bodies, a pair of sisters who kept getting in the middle of things and a PI that wasn't too good at keeping the sisters away from the murder scenes. Of course, the murders were solved by the end and there was a romance unexpectedly thrown in as well. The storyline was more of a comedy than a mystery. There is a book 2 in the series which I will give a try and hope that it's meatier than this one was.Favorite Quote: "I don't care about her musical preferences right now. I need a key.""Can't you open the door with a credit card?"He exhaled sharply. "I am not a thief.""But isn't breaking into a dwelling part of PI school?"He grinned. "I failed B&E.;"Trixie sighed. "And firearms too, I presume. How did you get your license?""By ignoring inquisitive females. Guess I'll have to see if I can break the lock.""Maybe you ought to see if it's unlocked first."He tried the doorknob and laughed as the door swung open. "Guess you got me on that one."
