Mystery well-done!

Claudia Bishop adds another good book to her Hemlock Falls Mystery series. In this episode former senator Alphonse Santini has come to the Inn for his wedding. His overbearing attitude aggravates Sarah Quilliam who runs the Inn, and her sister Meg, who is the chef. At the same time, the former members of the Hemlock Chamber of Commerce have split and formed two new groups which are organized by gender. The men take mysterious trips into the woods to play on drums and find their true nature while the women are beginning to have real feminist leanings. An inquisitive tv reporter named Nora Cahill comes to cover the proceedings. During the course of the book several murders occur and Sarah becomes a chief suspect. One of the delightful fringe benefits of reading Claudia Bishop is her extensive vocabulary which sends me scurrying to my dictionary a time or two during the reading of a book. The word this time was "tatterdemalion". I am looking forward to reading more of this author's work.

Murder Well Done

I've read every book written to date and I'm anxiously awaiting the next one. This series is EXCELLENT. Claudia Bishop makes her readers salivate while anxiously awaiting the next installment. Thanks Claudia.
