Synopsis

Good books don’t give up all their secrets at once. Neither does the island of Nantucket.When Agatha Mary Clarissa Christie Prouty, a.k.a. Angie, abandons her fiancé and her analyst job at a big Manhattan investment firm, she doesn’t expect to end up back where she started—the island of Nantucket.It’s not every day you get a chance to open a bookstore, complete with bookmark-eating cats and cantankerous great-aunts. Especially when your childhood friends agree to provide you with the world’s best pastries from their bakery down the street. Everything goes great until one of the locals turns up dead on the fourth of July, the sound of the gunshots covered by the local fireworks display. But did it have to happen right after Angie delivered a book to his home making her a prime suspect? Angie and every gossip on the island, including her great-aunt and her friends, are on the case. But trying to discover the truth is going to take more than a simple murder investigation. Someone’s guilty and the deadly secret might cut closer to home than anyone wants to admit.Being an amateur detective is harder than it looks, even when you’ve been named after the Queen of Crime. This cozy mystery/amateur sleuth novel is book one in the Angie Prouty Nantucket Cozy Mystery Series.

Ever pick up a book thinking you will enjoy it and then … you just don’t? That’s this book for me. There wasn’t enough pull for me. Usually, I can get through a cozy mystery in a couple of days, this one took a week. Not because the plot was intricate but because I just stopped - several times in fac......more
