by Joan Hess
Claire Malloy lives in the college town of Farberville. She has a bookstore, a teen-aged daughter with the ability to Speak in Capital Letters, and a luscious boyfriend. She also has a distressing tendency to find herself involved in murder investigations that are more correctly the business of her boyfriend, the homicide detective. This time, she starts out having afternoon tea at the home of an elderly friend and ends up investigating a murder in the home of the avant-garde artist who lives next door.
Although Joan Hess is not my favorite mystery writer, this was a quick and entertaining read. Claire is smart, funny, and just can't help asking questions. The secondary characters in this book are also involving. I enjoyed myself immensely.
