My Review:

Darcy with her Schnoodle, Mozart, and her bestie, Lizzie by her side they arrive in Bavaria, ready to savor frothy lagers and sizzling bratwurst while covering a historic monastery’s famed brewery.

While at the brewery they find the body of a businessman in the vat. Darcy against the advice of Agent Marcus Evans to stay out of his way dives into finding out what happened to the man found in the vat. Darcy’s investigation turns up many suspects and more.

The mystery and suspense kept me hanging on every word as I tried to figure out what was going on. Darcy’s investigation turned up many clues. Murder in Munich turned up many secrets that had me racing to the end as each one was revealed. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough wondering and waiting to find out what happened to the man in vat.

Grab a copy of Murder in Munich today and help Darcy, Mozart, and Lizzie solve another great mystery!

Review: Perilous Landing: A Maine Coast Cozy Mystery by Faye Weatherbee

Perilous Landing

A Maine Coast Cozy Mystery

by Faye Weatherbee

Published: August 28, 2023

Genre: Young Adult, Mystery, Thriller, Suspense, Short Reads


Blurb:


A novelette to launch this new Cozy Animal Mystery Series:

Inheriting Great-Aunt Tilly’s 1820 mansion in a Maine-coast town seemed like the perfect escape from New York City’s crime, grime—and my broken heart—till the simple life took a dangerous twist...

I’ve burned my bridges: sold my NYC apartment to move up here to Blueberry Bay, and open an inn in this fantastic, run-down folly of a house. But making friends in a tight-knit community would have been tough enough. Now, I don’t have a clue who I can trust—except my clever Havanese dog, Ziggy.

Our first night in the house, a stranger in the attic died right before my eyes. Suicide—or murder?

My brusque, annoying neighbor, an ex-detective who’s come out of retirement to investigate, suspects I killed her. My housekeeper knows things she’s not telling me. The local contractor I’ve hired, a cute single dad, seems great for the job, but has secrets too.

The repair list is huge, and the “Barton’s Landing B&B” has to open for business—soon. Meanwhile, I’ve got to solve this murder matter before I’m locked up as Suspect #1—and before whoever's making threats tries to kill me!

My Review:

Perilous Landing is the perfect introduction to Faye Weatherbee’s A Maine Coast Cozy Mystery series. It introduces us to the characters and Blueberry Bay, a small town on the Maine coast.

Lisa inherits an 1820s mansion from her great-aunt Tilly. She plans to turn the old house into a B&B. On her first night in the house, Lisa and her trustworthy little dog, Ziggy, hear a noise in the attic. After further investigation, they find a woman lying on the floor, dying. Is it murder or suicide?

Of course, Lisa is the number one suspect. She must discover what happened to this woman before she is locked up. Can she uncover the truth before she is arrested for murder? Will she ever open her B&B?

Perilous Landing might be a brief read, but it delivers a powerful impact as you try to uncover what happened to the woman in the attic. The mystery will keep you racing to the end to discover the truth.

Perilous Landing reminded me a bit of the new Nancy Drew mystery show, as it is set in a town on the Maine coast, and of course, Nancy Drew and her friends solved crimes as well. It also reminded me of the TV show Murder, She Wrote. I can’t wait to see where Ziggy and Lisa’s story takes us in the next book in the A Maine Coast Cozy Mystery series.

If you enjoy sweet cozy mysteries, then I highly suggest you give Perilous Landing a try! Grab a copy of Perilous Landing today and meet Ziggy and Lisa!
