A young man finds himself in the ownership of a local candle shop. It's due to the death of his Aunt, who's death may not have been a simple accident as it is thought. He meets the colorful cast of characters who run the local business in his building and along the way must determine if her death was really an accident or murder. ( ) A very depressing read and I'm irked that I'm writing a review for this book. But I must do so, in order to register as many reviews as ratings. I've changed the rating from an insanely over generous three stars to a one because this book is full of nasty characters. And the only good person dies before chapter one. Tim Myers is not at his best here, and I prefer him as Chris Cavender. Enough said. Cozy mystery type of novel. This is the opening novel in Myers' "Candle shop mysteries". Harrison Black inherit from his great aunt Belle's her candle shop and building which houses a few other small businesses and offices. Harrison dives right into his new life and becomes suspicious of the details of his great aunt's death. A array of colorful yet not really multi dimensional characters fill the space. Despite an ex-girlfriend and another woman flirting with Harrison, I don't buy that he's all that "straight" anyway. Average plot, average secondary characters, a lead that is okay. I have the other three novels in that series so I'll see if it improves. näyttää 4/4 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

A cozy setting, a cunning plot, a charming eccentric cast of characters, and some helpful hints about candle making and cooking combine beautifully in this captivating new series by the author of the highly acclaimed Lighthouse Series. Upon his Great-Aunt Belle's death, Harrison Black inherits At Wick’s End, her candle shop. From the beginning, Harrison suspects that there was foul play in with Belle’s death, and since the police are satisfied that her death was accidental, he takes it upon himself to investigate. What Harrison doesn’t know is that Belle Black knew the person who robbed a jewelry store and murdered the owner. She confronted the killer with hard evidence of his crime. With nothing to lose, he created a situation in which it seemed that Belle had fallen while climbing up a ladder. A murderer has gone to a lot of trouble to hang onto his ill-gotten booty and his freedom – he’s not about to let Harrison Black take any of it away from him. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
