Escape Claws by Linda Reilly is the first book in the Cat Lady Mystery series. Lara has returned to her hometown after 16 years to check in on her aunt. Aunt Fran is dealing with health issues and 11 cats all while being pressured to sell her land by town bully Theo. When Theo is found murdered on Fran's property, Lara adds solving a murder to her to do list. This was a wonderful start to a new series. I look forward to seeing how the characters (human and feline) develop. The mystery was strong, and the ending leads well toward a second book.
Ellie Alexander's Another One Bites the Crust is the seventh book in the Bakeshop Mystery series. Jules, owner of Torte, has a full plate with the shop renovations and her mom's wedding. When her best friend Lance appears on the verge of a breakdown, she wonders what else can go wrong. She finds out when the star of the local theater's production is murdered, and Lance is the prime suspect. I always enjoy this series from the characters to the setting to the mystery. This book did not disappoint. The book moves along quickly. Even though there are several sub-plots, the story flows so well. I am already looking forward to the next in the series.
disclosure: I received these e-books through NetGalley but was not otherwise compensated for these reviews!
