The Snow Globe Murder: An Agatha and Christie Cozy Mystery- Book 1

by Penelope Loveletter

THE SNOW GLOBE MURDER
An Agatha and Christie Cozy Mystery

Rose Bennett's grand opening celebration for The Literary Cat bookstore should have been perfect. Fresh coffee, stacks of books, and her two beloved Ragdoll cats, Agatha and Christie, charming the residents of Whispering Pines, Minnesota. But a mysterious snow globe arrives on her doorstep, and when Christie starts meowing at a locked door, Rose's dream of small-town life takes a deadly turn.

With the local police interviewing everyone who came to the grand opening, which seems to be half the town, Rose tries to focus on cleaning up and uncovering where the one-of-a-kind snow globe came from. But her cats seem to know something she doesn't. Christie keeps batting at a mysterious purple rubber band, while Agatha sniffs at evidence the police have overlooked.

Despite her squeamishness about blood and her doubts about amateur sleuthing, Rose might be the only one who can piece together the clues—with a little help from her feline detective duo. If only she can solve the crime before the killer strikes again.

Snuggle up with the first book in a charming new series featuring a bookstore owner, her mystery-solving cats, and the quirky residents of a small Minnesota town.

The Literary Cat bookstore is about to have their grand opening. The owner, Rose Bennett, is more than a little excited. Along with her two Ragdoll cats, Agatha and Christie, she’s ready to begin her new venture.

The store is located in Whispering Pines, Minnesota where everyone knows everyone else. She receives an unusual snow globe gift, but has no clue who sent it. Then, she notices one of the rooms in her bookstore is closed and one of her cats is trying to get in. She’s stunned at what she discovers.

It’s up to Rose and her kitties to figure this murder mystery out. It’s especially difficult since everyone who attended her grand opening is a suspect.

I love the small town feel to this book. It’s perfect for a cozy mystery. It’s a short one. A bite-sized mystery to read in one sitting.

The characters are quirky and well written. Of course, my favorites are the kitties Agatha and Christie. Great names for a mystery lover.

I’m looking forward to this series continuing. On a sidenote - beautiful cover.

Cute mystery!

I'm new to cozy mysteries but this was a really good one! I liked the familial feel of the story and any mystery happening in a bookstore has my vote! I highly recommend this book and try to forgive the errors because with spellcheck constantly messing with our script, we all make mistakes!

If you have a half an hour and you don't know what to do with it this is a cute little 79 page book. A cozy mystery mystery cat mystery I think there's a second one also.

If you're trying to rack up books this is a quick read.
