Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2621 KP) rated For Whom the Bluebell Tolls (Bridal Bouquet Shop Mystery #2) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Audrey Bloom is excited when the reality TV show Fix My Wedding is coming to town, especially when she gets to design the bridal bouquet. Okay, so the bride is a bit bell obsessed, but she can make it work. Unfortunately, that becomes the least of her problems when one of the hosts of the show is killed and the police begin to suspect Audrey’s former boyfriend, a production assistant on the show.

This series is already on my favorites list after just two books. The characters are wonderful and the so real. This applies to the series regulars and the suspects in this book. The plot is intriguing and kept the surprises coming until the end. Add in a dash of humor, and you’ve got another winner.

NOTE: I was sent an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Let down by the ending

I don't tend to watch crime dramas on terrestrial tv, mainly because there's far too many. However there was something about the adverts for Deadwater Fell that really drew me in, and overall I'm glad I gave it a go.

This is a rather intriguing drama that's rather atmospheric and really draws you in. It has a great cast, and honestly I'll watch anything with David Tennant in it. As far as the outcome of the story goes, it keeps you guessing for the entire 4 episode run. However the problem is with the outcome and ending itself. It's entirely predictable and exactly what you'd expected from earlier in the series, and it's such a letdown. I was hoping for some sort of twist but this was sadly missing and it's such a shame as the rest of the series was rather good. They really needed to come up with a better ending!
