In the second book in
the Seaside Cafe Mystery series Everly Swan is settling back into life in her
hometown and catering a childhood friend’s wedding when the wedding turns in to
a funeral. When the groom is murder and the new bride is the primary and
only suspect in the eyes of the law. Everly in determined to clear her
friends name even when it means butting heads with Detective Hays a former
US Marshall turned small-town detective.
After her first murder
investigation she had promised to keep her nose out of police business
unfortunately when it someone she knows she just can't help but butt in.
Hopefully she can help solve another murder without ending up the
killers next target.
No Good Tea goes Unpunished isn't your typical cozy mystery. The beach setting with a
tea cafe plus it in the culinary cozy. But it reads more modern. The
fictional beach town in North Carolina not far from the outer banks is easy to
picture even for someone who hasn't been there because of the
author's descriptions of the town. Without the magic aspect this book
reminds me a bit of the movie Practical Magic. The whole quirky aunts thing and
the so called family curse. As well as the loveable cat and Seagull that
have adopted Everly not the other way around.
This cozy mystery is great for
cozy fans that are just looking to branch out while still staying in the cozy
genre. I
also suggest reading the books in series order.
I received a copy of
this book from the publisher through netgalley. I was not required to write a
positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.
