Review: A cozy murder mystery

A cozy murder mystery where the female sleuth is a cross between Christie's Jane Marple and Hercule Poirot. However, without the warmth of Jane Marple or the conceit of Poirot, this character is bland, unknown and never developed. The plot is mediocre, the victim unlikeable and the murder and denouement uninteresting. Much of this can be attributed to the short story format which never allowed the author to develop the story, the characters or the plot.
