Review: I paid too much for this one
Rating: 2 out of 5

At least one reviewer mentioned getting this book as a free download; I should have been so lucky.  I paid 2.99, and that was way too much.  I love what they call cozy mysteries, if they are well written and tell a good story.  But this one was plodding and predictable.  I didn't find Myrtle likeable at all; in fact, I kept wondering why she felt she had to solve this mystery when her son, the chief of police, was perfectly competent at his job.  The characters were not well developed (in spite of what some other reviewers claim), and there were just too many stereotypes for my taste.  Editing was poor, dialogue stale, plot not very interesting. . .so I won't be reading any more Myrtle Clover stories.  Jessica Fletcher she ain't!
