This is a good book that goes back into the past and a murder done generations ago. Faith is sought out by her friend, Pix's mother, Ursula to help her with something from her past. I really enjoyed the unraveling of her story and in the time while Ursula was resting, there were plenty of other side stories to deal with and keep me entertained. And the recipes are there to choose from also. Great combination, a murder and recipes! ( ) Synopsis: Faith’s friend, Pix, has had to go out of town to participate in her son’s pre-wedding activities. However, Pix’s mom, Ursula, is suddenly too ill to accompany the family. Faith visits her and listens to her story of a murder that occurred in her youth discovering that Ursula needs to know just who committed the crime. Meanwhile, back at the church, a substantial amount of discretionary funds are missing from Tom’s account. Faith must solve this crime, as well. Review: An interesting read, but nothing earth shaking. The outcomes of both crimes are not unexpected. Finally finished this one. I liked it, but it was definitely a slow mover. The recipes look good and I'm particularly interested in trying the individual fruit puffs. If I'd read the rest of the series I assume some of the character beats would have had more impact. I actually did better with this one than I do with a lot of cozies featuring amateur detectives. Nobody did anything particularly idiotic which helped a lot. I also really liked the historical details and plot in this one, but it's not clear to me whether that's normally included for this series. I'd be willing to try some more titles, but they won't be a high priority for me. July 2012 COTC Book Club selection. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. A fun cozy mystery, featuring Faith Fairchild a minister’s wife, caterer, and amateur sleuth. In this book Faith is dealing with secrets in all forms, both from the past and the present. As Faith must help her friend Ursula "solve" a mystery from the Depression, she also feels a need to expose an embezzler who has framed her husband. I have read a number of books from this series and find them an easy fun read--this book was no exception. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la série
When an audit finds money missing from the minister's discretionary fund at Aleford's First Parish Church, suspicion falls on Faith's husband, the Rev. Thomas Fairchild, the only person with access to the account. To complicate matters, Ursula Rowe, Faith's friend Pix Miller's elderly and ailing mother, asks Faith's help in dealing with the disquieting letters she's recently received. Secrets, the kind that fester and can make even strong people ill, reach back to the 1920s. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
