Slay in Character is the fourth installment in the Cat Latimer Mystery series set in Aspen Hills, Colorado featuring author Cat Latimer, her boyfriend/handyman Seth and her best friend and resident chef Shauna. The latest writer's retreat is host to a group of Connecticut romance writers and Jessi Ball, the Covington College student who earned the right to attend this month.
The group is excited to take a field trip to the old mining town, Outlaw. Outlaw is now being run like a western amusement park complete with afternoon gunfights, an old timey photo shop and saloon. Most of the Covington College students including Jessi and her best friend Danielle, work at the resort to earn extra money. During their visit, Jessi disappears for a short time and when she comes back she looks a little frightened.
The next day Cat's Uncle Pete who is also the police chief arrives on the doorstep looking for Jessi. It appears that Danielle has gone missing and after a search of Outlaw, she's discovered in a room above the saloon - dead. Danielle is wearing Jessi's costume and it's widely known that the Covington students are children of mafia families so Cat begins to wonder if Jessi was the actual target. Despite the warnings from Seth, Uncle Pete and her mysterious neighbor Dante, Cat begins to investigate and discovers she'll need to be quick on the draw to catch a killer.
A fun, fast paced story line with characters that continue to evolve with each new addition to the series. While each of the books in the series can read as a stand a lone, I strongly recommend starting at the beginning in order to fully understand the back history of Cat and her friends.
