Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2379 KP) rated Sucker Punch (A Candy Shop Mystery, #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Abby Shaw is busy trying to get her candy shop ready for Valentine's Day. But she can't quite resist the lure of the local theater company, especially when a murder takes place on center stage and a friend becomes a suspect. I enjoyed the characters, but the plot really dragged in the middle.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2379 KP) rated The Black Dove in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Big Red and Old Red are still in San Francisco when a chance encounter with a friend leads them into a murder in China town. This book has some funny parts, but it is darker than the previous two books in the series. Still, it was a fun trip through the San Francisco of 1893.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2379 KP) rated A Flicker of Doubt (Candlemaking Mystery #4) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A quick kayak trip down the river behind his shop leads to Harrison finding the body of his ex-girlfriend. With the sheriff determined it was suicide, Harrison sets out to prove it was murder. As much as I love Harrison, the sub-plots took over the story and slowed the book down overall.

Yes this was as good as the cover looks, I couldn't put it down. Its well written with some great details about oil rigs and Saudi. There were twists and turns and thrills all the way. Murder and revenge to keep you on the edge of your seat and reading into the small hours. I'd never heard of this author before but I will be reading more of her work. A FLAMMING GREAT 4 STARS

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
This book is so much fun!
The mc Sadie gets embroiled in winter activities and murder when a snooty homegrown chef takes an ice pick to the chest.
Pretty much everyone who met the dingus chef had a reason to want him dead so Sadie has her hands full when a friend us fingered as a suspect.

This thought provoking drone strike thriller is a tense and exciting watch with some excellent work from Helen Mirren, Aaron Paul and the much missed Alan Rickman. I liked how the film satisfyingly explores the political, ethical and emotional implications of ending a human life thousands of miles away from behind a computer screen. It was quite disturbing and sadly very realistic to see politicians arguing over the positives of murder. Well worth checking out.
