I just finished another delightful book by Karen Whalen. This one is part of her Dinner Club series of mysteries. It features Jane Marsh and a cast of interesting characters. This book had me guessing who the murderer was till almost the end of the book. It was a great page-turner.
Book Synopsis
This book begins when Jane Marsh and some of her fellow dinner club members went for a weekend to enjoy the Peach Festival in a small Colorado town and look to finalize preparations for Jane's upcoming wedding. In the beginning we find the characters at a Murder Mystery game at the B&B where they are staying. Each of the attendees is in costume for their character in the "Murder Mystery Game" and they all have notes about their characters. Jane messes up early on by mistakenly revealing that she is the killer. This pretty much brings the mystery to a halt and the participants end up calling it an early evening. Now the real mystery will begin when Jane comes across a dead body in the B&B.
The police are called and everyone that has attended or worked at the B&B, including the members of the Diner Club, become suspects. The book continues with Jane trying to figure out the killer. There is much at stake including the reputation of the B&B and the small town election for mayor. This is a small town where everyone knows everyone, and everyone seems to have an opinion.
If you are looking for a cozy mystery with lots of characters and possible suspects this is the book for you. I didn't guess the killer till almost the end and it was fun to follow Jane's logic on who might be the culprit.
