This is not a cozy mystery. It has the f word all over it. It has very graphic sex and not just between the main characters. You have on page 48 an the ex husband, of the murder victim, describing some graphic sexual preferences with his present wife, who is a porn star. He describes some of his favorite scenes in her movies. Then he wakes her up and say cruds things, like "Daddy needs something" , and she tells him how much she likes bananas, He finishes in her mouth, and I stopped reading the book. Not because I dont like a good steamy scene, but because, it was poorly written, and pointless. Unless the point was to make the reader just abhor this character. What a pig! The characters are flat, and not clear which one is which, except you can tell when the ghost is talking because she changes the font. Full of F bombs and sexual misconduct.

There are many good reviews on amazon about this book. Not every book needs to be a cozy, but just so you know what you are not getting, and what you are.
