Now that murder is on the menu, and my sister is a suspect, it's up to me and my very willing brother-in-law to find the killer. Who better than a cozy mystery lover to solve this?

About the author

Ann Stang is the author of six inspirational cozy mysteries, two romances, and a children's book about a mischievous dachshund. Her motto is there’s a mystery around every corner – or there ought to be. She starts with a whodunnit, adds a little romance, sprinkles in clean humor, (and usually a dog), and voila! A novel that everyone can enjoy.

She's married with five children and thirteen grandchildren, but she hangs out with her dachshunds most of the day. They’re willing to listen if she reads snatches of her current work in progress and only give each other looks when she won’t notice.

Cute story about a wadding and a reception gone wrong with a dead guest with so many confusing clues and not being sure who the murderer was trying to kill, did they get the right victim or did they kill the wrong one. Follow the confusion until its surprising end. Great Read.

Very long winded

Very long windedand wordy without actually saying much. Snail pace writing. I was hopeful about this book and author. I had trouble staying engaged in the book

Great mystery. Had me guessing till the very end.

Likable characters. Great story. I was surprised by who the murderer was. All the high ginks kept me guessing till the very end.

This is a light hearted romantic mystery, set around Christmas time. There is a wedding where a guest is found dead. 2 sleuths work on solving the crime. Interesting characters and story line.
