This is a light, humorous cozy mystery. Fun to read.

Cute cozy mystery....I would have rated it higher had it not had so many characters to keep up with. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed this series. They are hard to find though. Mystery around a bed and breakfast.

Funny writer, good characters, hope they develop in the continuing series.

first in the series

Great cozy; prolific series.

When the garishly grotesque clan of wealthy carpet-sweeper magnate Otto Broadie sweeps down upon Judith McMonigle's Hillside Manor Inn, it looks like there'll be a wild night of drinking, dining, and fortune-telling in the offing. But when their soothsayer-for-hire Madame Gushenka drops dead after someone douses her tea leaves with bug killer, harried hostess Judith and her irrepressible cousin Renie are left to clean up the mess. One of the Brodie bunch would dearly love to sweep the Madame's murder under the rug, however, and that might mean eliminating the nosy Ms. McMonigle as well. But with the help of her one-time beau, policeman Joe Flynn, Judith is determined to rattle the dust off some closeted family skeletons, in order to coax a killer out of hiding before coffee is served.

Wealthy carper sweeper magnate Otto Brodie and his Garishly grotesque clan have descended upon Judith's B&B for a wild night of drinking, dining, and fortune-telling. But the party ends abruptly when Madame Gusgenka, their soothsayer for hire drops dead froma lethal dose of tea and bug killer.

This is the first book of the Bed and Breakfast mystery series.
