I'm on a mission to read as many of these new cozy Mysteries that are appearing now as I possibly can. 4 books that you can read in an hour or so most of them are pretty forgettable. This one is not really an exception, however, a detective that used to be an actress is an interesting concept. Still, she had the requisite attractive cop to work with, who paid lip service to not wanting a civilian involved but still managed to work with the detective. Personally I think romance in a cozy mystery is misguided, but then I grew up on Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers and Njaio Marsh. You can't expect these dime a dozen . Mysteries to live up to them. ( ) Kit played a cop on TV until she's blacklisted after a series of bad choices. She decides to buy a fixer upper in her hometown and return to college. When she begins refurbishing the hard wood floors, she finds a skeleton hidden underneath the floorboards. I liked that the cops (at least not all of them) are not portrayed as being incompetent. Kit seems to respect the detective assigned to the case and what she finds out seems to kind of fall into her lap because people are willing to talk to her. She also shares the information she learns with the detective. I also liked that Kit realized the differences between real life and having scriptwriters chart each dialogue line and movement. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Kit Wilder is all washed up at the ripe old age of twenty-three. Blackballed by the producers of her hit TV show, she returns home to the affluent town of Westdale, chock full of Mayflower descendants, to enroll in college and lead a quiet life...until she discovers a skeleton in her house.Kit quickly finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation led by the handsome detective, Romeo Moretti. With the help of her new neighbors, Kit channels her former character, hotshot detective Ellie Gold, in order to solve the murder so she can get back to renovating her house and avoiding the Mayflower Madam, who also happens to be her hypercritical, gin-swilling mother.
