My Review
Beth Fletcher is trying to make a success of her small antique shop in Key West, Florida. She loves the area, and she even has her sister, Sarah, nearby in her own tea shop. The one bad thing is all the shop owners have just received notices increasing their rent. Beth doesn’t know if she’ll be able to make ends meet or have to close her beloved shop.
She attends an estate sale in the hopes of picking up some items for her shop. She discovers an old dresser that she’s sure will bring in some cash once she refurnishes it. While at the sale, she stumbles over a dead body. The police suspect murder. The next thing she knows, she’s the number one suspect. Along with her adorable cat, Agatha, Beth sets out to find the killer.
This has everything I enjoy in a cozy mystery. A small town where everyone knows each other, small shops, a strong heroine and a cute cat to help with the sleuthing. The cast of characters are fun, quirky and they made me laugh. Well, most of them made me laugh. The bad guys didn’t :)
It’s a real page-turner and I loved visiting Key West for a few hours. I felt as if I was right there by Beth’s side. There are many possible suspects and I was surprised by the ending. I always enjoy a book that keeps me guessing.
