Blurb:
Windmere Cove had secrets buried deep. Now they’re turning deadly.
Noodle, Izzy Harper’s golden
retriever, caught the scent of trouble before the gala began.
The
director’s speech ended in applause.
His life ended hours
later.
And Izzy was the last person he tried to warn.
The suspects? As refined as the guest
list—
and just as dangerous.
An heir who had
everything—until the director took what mattered most.
Now
he’ll do anything to take it back.
An ambitious curator wanted
his job and the multimillion-dollar deal he was blocking.
She
didn’t just want him out—she needed him gone.
Izzy has questions.
Noodle has
instincts.
What begins as a hunt for answers becomes something
else entirely—
a confrontation with someone who doesn’t
intend to let her walk away.
The more she uncovers, the more
carefully the trap is set.
And the final chapter?
Might be
hers.
My Review:
Murder at the Historical Society is a wonderful addition to Harper
Burton’s A Windmere Cozy Mystery Series. I was hooked from the
first page by its numerous twists and turns that kept me turning the
pages.
A mystery from the past
involving Izzy’s grandmother and her grandmother’s best friend
has everyone in an uproar when a man’s life, Winters, the director
of the historical society is suddenly taken.
Winter's
death is not all that Izzy has to deal with right now. There is a
mystery surrounding her grandmother’s cookbook and the appliances
at her cafe that she’s trying to revive.
The mystery and
suspense kept me racing to the end, eager to learn more about Izzy’s
grandmother’s cookbook and her appliances. I wanted to find out who
was responsible for Winters’ death and why they wanted to harm him.
I also wanted to learn more about the recipes in Izzy’s
grandmother’s cookbook—recipes that were ahead of their time and
desired by many, people who might be willing to commit murder just to
get them.
I can’t wait to read more mysteries in the
Windmere Cozy Mystery series to see what happens next in Izzy’s
world.
I enjoyed reading Murder at the Historical Society
so much that I highly recommend picking up a copy today and joining
Izzy in another great mystery! Better yet, why not grab a copy of all
of her books while you’re at it?
Check out all the books in the Windmere Cozy Mystery series I’ve read.
