A fairly good mystery. I was looking forward to a good read set in the Maritimes. Most of the characters were not very appealing.
Whether writing under the pseudonym Alisa Craig or her real name Charlotte MacLeod this lady presents side-splittingly funny mystery farce. Be prepared to laugh at yourself.
Charlotte MacLeod AKA Alisa Craig wrote funny cozy mysteries with quirky characters. The Setting for the Royal Mountie Detective Inspector Madoc Rhys mysteries is Canada. This is the first book in the series when Rhys goes undercover posing as a relative of Janet Wadman to solve the murder of her elderly neighbor by home canned green beans gone very bad. Janet is getting over a broken romance and appendicitis and staying on her brother's farm to recover from both. Madoc is the unassuming celebrated mountie who captured the most dangerous criminal in Canadian history. Both the romance and the mystery are good reads.
