I am getting very fussy about my cozy's! This one is a winner. First in the series, and it was a page turning delight. Loved the cast of characters, young and old, a good mix. The foodie connection is fun, descriptive, and varies from the hot dog stand to the elite black tie. The only down side is the ditzyness of the main character, and how the author allows her to run on and on and on during stressful situations..it just seems to be out of place as she does have enough intelligence to be considered for the top slot as a food critic in the Key Zest, new food mag...but not have enough sense to zip it shut when needed.
Other than that, I am well into the second in the series now, and love the Florida Key setting, very colorful, lots of discription of the local flair. 3.5 stars.
