Synopsis

In the gentle coastal town of South Cove, California, all Jill Gardner wants is to keep her store—Coffee, Books, and More—open and running. So why is she caught up in the business of murder?

When Jill's elderly friend Miss Emily calls in a fit of pique, she already knows that the city council is trying to force Emily to sell her dilapidated old house. But Emily's gumption goes for naught when she dies unexpectedly and leaves the house to Jill, along with all of her problems . . . and her enemies. Convinced that her friend was murdered, Jill is finding the list of suspects longer than the list of repairs needed on the house. But Jill is determined to uncover the culprit—especially if it gets her closer to South Cove's finest, Detective Greg King. The problem is, the killer knows that she's on the case—and is determined to close the book on Jill permanently.

I broke my own rules with this author -my rule is never to buy a whole or even a part of a series no matter how cheap it is UNTIL I've read the first book. Well, I must have had a major brain fart because I now own this entire series except book 2 -and the first book pretty much sucked. There were to......more

Good first book in the series. I liked the California coast town setting and the characters were likeable too. The mystery was good and kept me guessing.
