Review: Need to Read Others in the Series First

Things had gone from bad to worse at work, because the boss's daughter didn't like Jenna Stafford. So, Jenna goes to help her sister, Carly open her Down Home Diner. At the grand opening, Jenna finds a body in a car behind the dumpster, and the murder mystery begins. If you figure out "who-done-it" you're better than I was.The mystery was interesting, but there were a lot of characters to keep up with. I think my problem was this was the first of the Sleuthing Sisters I'd read, so I didn't have previous knowledge of all the characters. For instance, it took forever for me to learn who the Travis was they kept mentioning. I didn't have a previous connection with Jenna, Alex, Carly, or Emmit, either, so it was hard for me to feel close to them from just what was presented here or to care deeply what happened to them. I would recommend anyone wanting to read this one to have read the other two books before this one first. If I had known this, I'd have held this one until I got the others. It is a clean, Christian novel, but I found very little of their Christian faith included.
