I love this author. This was one of the few I had not read. This is very early on in the series. The second book, I believe.
Judith and her cousin Renie stumble onto another murder while on a pre-Thanksgiving holiday in Canada. Great read!
Love this series!!!
Leaving the Hillside manor in capable hands, bed-and-breakfast hostess Judith McMonigle heads north to Vancouver's Hotel Clovia with her irrepressibly voracious cousin Renie for a pre-Thanksgiving getaway. But when an addled and impoverished popcorn vendor is murdered -- along with his foul-mouthed pet parakeet -- a local copper's suspicious gaze settles on the two visiting Americans. The cousins, in turn, suspect one of the "Sacred Eight" -- an odd-duck assortment of glamorous showbiz glitterati currently gathered at the historic hotel. And unless Judith and Renie can pluck a killer from the secretive, star-studded group, their geese will be thoroughly cooked in short order!
Funny mystery in a series by Mary Daheim. Two cousins try to solve a nurder mystery in Vancouver hotel. The murder of a popcorn vendor and his foul-mouthed parrot lead the cousins on a merry chase to find the killer.
As with all of Daheim's books, this is a good, easy read. A cozy mystery with Bed and Breakfast flair.
A good cozy mystery, a fast read, another of Daheim's great bed-and- breakfast murder mysteries!!!!
This book is #2 in the series:
