The Pint of No Return is the second book in the A Sloan
Krause Mystery series by Ellie Alexander. We return to the town of Leavenworth,
Washington for the town's Oktoberfest which despite its name actually happens
in September not October. As the very first Oktoberfest was
in celebration of a German Barron's wedding. Leavenworth
Washington is an actual real town in the US that does indeed look like a German
village.
Brewmster Sloan is
enjoying working and brewing beers for Nitro. All the while dealing with family
issues when she stumbles across another dead body. This time a
movie star, Mitchell Morgan who was filming
a documentary about microbreweries and beer
festivals. It's up to Sloan to find the murder and save the
festival.
I enjoyed this book more than the first one in
the series. I love the German village feel of Leavenworth as well as Sloan as a
female brewer in a man's world. This is a page turning cozy that's
different from other cozy's I've read. I believe this series is the
only cozy series that focuses on the world of mircobrewing with a female
brewer. But this one is great for people who know the community and enjoy
a good food cozy. I look forward to more books in this series.
