From USA Today bestselling authors Ellie Ashe and Elizabeth Ashby...When Meri Sinclair inherited Dangerous Reads, she didn't just get a bookshop. She inherited a legacy. It's Danger Cove's only bookstore, and her grandmother had made sure that it's a warm and friendly places for readers of all ages. Determined to get off on the right foot, Meri has organized a series of author readings, starting off with Cal Montague, a Danger Cove native who grew up to become a solid B-list actor, and his tell-all his memoirs, Tales I Shouldn't Tell. Only the actor turns out to be a difficult diva, and before the inaugural event can even start, Meri finds the guest of honor in the alley-shot dead. Turns out someone else thought Cal shouldn't be telling tales, too. With motive and opportunity, the police have Meri in their sights. To save her business and her own skin, Meri turns to her small staff of part-time employees for help.

The Danger Cove mysteries are always fun, this one especially so since it takes place in a bookstore. ( )

Another great Danger Cove cozy mystery sponsored by Gemma Halliday!
See publisher's blurb for basic clues. There is lots of suspense and mystery regarding the murder and the irascible police detective who treats Meri like a prime suspect just because the victim was shot at her bookstore. Lots of plot twists and changing suspects and clues keep your nose stuck in this book (and the series) until dinner is late or whatever. The characters really are, and yet they are so real that you just might know them! Then there is the dog stuck up a tree and the curried Lutefisk!
The Danger Cove books are all stand alone, with the town itself being the only constant.
Ellie also writes the Miranda Vaughn series, and they are spectacular, too! ( )
