Dead Men Don't Get the Munchies

I think this book deserves a 5 star rating. This is the third book in this series that I have read and all deserve 5 stars. I loved the added character in the second book of the series of the little dog and in this third book the character Kegan is a great addition to characters. The personalities of each character in this series are just terrific . I can't say enough about how much I am enjoying it. Miranda Bliss, please continue this series for a long time.

amusing whodunit

In Washington DC nobody could accuse Annie Capshsw of being a slacker. During the day she is a bank teller; while at night she runs the business and helps outdoing everything but cooking since she can't even boil water. Jim, the owner and Annie's boyfriend is sponsoring a six week bar food cooking class. When Annie's best friend Eve sees one of the students is Brad Peterson, she runs off crying, but not before everyone in the class heard her say she wants to kill him. Later Eve tells Annie that Brad is a weasel, who enjoys hurting others; because of him she belongs to a support group helping people like her cope with these weasels. Not long afterward Eve's wish comes true as someone kills Brad. Because of her loud angry comment at Bellywasher's, Eve is the prime suspect as she apparently had the motive. Annie does not believe for a moment that distressed as Eve was, she could kill anyone even someone she loathes. She plans to affirm her belief in Eve by uncovering the identity of the culprit. While investigating, a cooking student Kegan assists Annie so that the audience follows the quirky escapades of Batwoman and Robin (a modern day gender bending version of the 1960s spoof TV show that is). Whereas the eccentric cast adds humor to the amateur sleuth; the victim receives no empathy as he was a harassing predator who used his power position to force sexual favors from females whose other choice was being fired with a campaign to paint the woman as a deviant. Readers will appreciate this amusing whodunit with its serious workplace undertone. Harriet Klausner
