Customer Reviews

I laughed out loud!

DATE WITH THE PERFECT DEAD MAN is an engaging and humorous entry in the Hannah and Kiki mystery series. These two sisters don't let a little thing like being of retirement age slow them down one bit! Kiki dresses like a teenager and has the hormones to match. Hannah is more dignified and reserved, but she still manages to keep a man or two on her string. What's more, they are able to investigate and solve murders with panache.I didn't figure out who killed the obnoxious but still glamorous Hollywood bigshot until all was revealed at the end of the book, so the author was successful in that respect (a major plus for me). This is one of the funniest books I've read this year. Be sure to read both books in this series. I'm waiting for the next one to be published.

a wonderful surprise

I admit "Date With the Perfect Dead Man" was a beach blanket pass-along, but what an unexpected treat! The main characters were funny, randy, interesting, and ultimately as competent as they needed to be. Be sure to read this breezy little number before you see the movie--that's right, I'm sure there's going to be a movie!

This book was so fun I read it in one sitting!

Charming characters in a great story make this murder mystery a wonderful find. Kiki and Hannah are a great team. Smart, funny and entertaining to say the least, I loved every page of their witty banter. I am surprised anyone could find this mystery, which is wholesome compared to most novels, offensive. I can't wait to spend more time with these sisters.

Great Sequel

I love Hannah and Kiki and can't wait for the next on

A highly recommended read!

I discovered Annie Griffin when my local bookstore recommended her first book. When I heard her second mystery was available, I rushed here to get it. It doesn't disappoint - bringing back two warm and funny sisters in a great new plot. Kudos to Griffin and hellos to my fellow Griffin fans!
