4,0 su 5 stelle Shooting pool and sleuthing
Recensito in Italia il 7 giugno 2015

Even though I am not interested in pool and do not know the rules of this game, I was not at a disadvantage: I skimmed through those pages focusing on the details relevant to the mystery. Anyway, some details were well dealt with during the game. On the whole, I liked this cosy mystery. Jessie is fifty-two and divorced; she is a historical romance writer who soon becomes a smart sleuth. No sooner does she return home from shopping at Tate’s where her friend and neighbour Candy works as an assistant, than Candy’s boyfriend Stanley shows up and lands up on Jessie’s couch, dead. Needless to say, Jessie is the prime suspect and she has to face up to the fact that she is being questioned by the police and harassed by the reporters. After snooping around, she finds out important clues, shared with a cute cop: Stanley’s will, a lot of money found in Stanley’s house, a new boyfriend for Candy, strange goings-on in the company where Stanley works as a financial counsellor, Stanley’s job and his business relationships with regular customers at the bar where pool is played. Candy knows everything and she is the sole beneficiary of the will, so she is now in custody, together with her new boyfriend. Jessie is convinced Candy is innocent and does her best to prove it, searching for motive, means and opportunity. After some interesting twists and turns and a bit of action, the culprit is found.
A good mystery, with unexpected developments at certain points and the inevitable dash of romance. Go for it!

5,0 su 5 stelle Smart, funny read.

This book has quirky characters with lots going on. There is a middle aged author in the middle of writing a novel who is interrupted by a neighbour's boyfriend who drops in and promptly dies on her sofa. The story then proceeds to the investigation into who murdered Stanley and how the friends and police sometimes work at cross purposes until a satisfactory ending. The story moves along at a good pace wth smart dialogue and enough humour to keep the reader happy. I am now starting the next book in the series.

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 5 febbraio 2014

I appreciate the writer's fearlessness. Unafraid to laugh at herself, she incorporates a wealth of ridiculous little quirks and oddities that endear her characters to her readers. I might have commented, as a seasoned shark, that the author herself probably isn't the crack shot she awards her lead, but she admits it herself in her bio! So, in case nobody else mentions it, for reference; A crack shot would probably mention "English," which refers to the placement of the stick on the cue ball. Bar patrons, regardless of their ability, almost never have the practice or ability to consistently control the table, and rely on the luck of the break to block the opposition's shots. A true shark, when she plays to win, runs the table 90% of the time. I might miss two shots in five games. Gambling is for amateurs, tournaments pay the bills. So, reading the pool scenes, I chuckled because the character missed too often rather than not enough.
The other characters in the story were equally well-defined, and while the conclusion was unexpected, it wasn't implausible or ridiculous. I was pleasantly surprised by the twist! I loved the inclusion of excerpts from the lead character's WIP throughout the story. By far, the best part of this whole series is the age of the main character, her realistic challenges, and her undisputed sexiness. A fan of champagne cocktails, I keep my fridge stocked and take no small measure of ribbing for it. I feel like I found a kindred spirit, and raise my glass in a toast to solidarity! Champagne Cougars on the prowl!!!

5,0 su 5 stelle Better than cozy!
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 27 giugno 2014

Cindy Blackburn was an author previously unknown to me, so I was a little nervous in case we didn't get along - but I needn't have worried. Even the fact that I know nothing about the game of pool was in no way a disadvantage - the details of Jessica's usually match-winning games were fascinating.
However, it was the gradual and clever unfolding of the plot, the twists and turns as Jessica's investigations revealed more clues, as well as red herrings, and the light touch -without being lightweight - that kept me hooked. Jessica's a smart, sassy and amusing middle-aged sleuth, a perfect foil for detective Wilson Rye. And Snowflake's just adorable.

Auf der Suche nach günstigen Kindle Büchern bin ich über dieses Buch gestolpert und der erste "Blick ins Buch" hat mir gleich gut gefallen. Es ist amüsant geschrieben, liest sich leicht und zügig. Insgesamt ein angenehmer Krimi, der mir Lust auf mehr gemacht hat. Den zweiten Band habe ich schon gekauft.
