This is a high octane cozy mystery. Not only am I introduced to 14 characters and a cat with an unbecoming personality in the first 15 pages of story, but also the action is piled on in quick succession. Every now and then I wanted to come up for a breather, so I can only imagine what Libby McKenna was going through.

Despite the fact there’s a lot going on in this story, there is actually very little sleuthing going on. Could simply be because Libby is too busy with her own life to find out who killed Mickey Warren and why. We only find out that no one liked him. Libby doesn’t compile a suspects list and I think she only talked to one person who might be considered a suspect.

The story is fun, but the mystery could have been more present.

I read an ARC through NetGalley.
