This was a short cozy mystery that you can read in a day. Claudia is getting ready to open an ice cream parlor which has been her dream. Before it opens, the interior decorator ends up dead in the shop. Cal, the investigator seems to be a man with no personality or feelings. Claudia insinuates herself into the investigation under the watchful eye of Officer Chuck. This part is a little unbelievable but it is necessary for the storyline. The crime is solved only because of Claudia's involvement. A little corny. ( )

Everything about this story and the characters was very shallow, unrealistic and poorly developed. The main character, Claudia and the investigator, Cal were horrible & completely unprofessional towards one another and then the story got wrapped up with a neat little bow, blah! I do not recommend this book. ( )
