Kathy does enjoy her beers. Tonight’s poison is a Guinness.
She’s at Campbell’s Pub, the establishment that Lenny owns.
Kathy actually enjoys staying home and reading mystery books (this reminds me of someone), so it’s good that Lenny manages to drag her out.
The Dart Vaders (😂) are the top team in the competitive darts league.
But the patrons are getting rowdy, especially the participants in the match. Ralph and Derek think the dart boards are messed up.
But the Black Irish aren’t cheating…or are they?
Injecting race and overly racializing people and subjects (again) in these cozy mysteries is…not a welcome shift.
Interesting conclusion. Lenny is really good at darts, too!

Competition at it's best or worst
Another nice little read. She has been goine out with Lenny (the building and bar owner) and is now back at the bar. However all is not going well as the raised voices by the dart board indicate. The leader of the winning side (for several matches) is accussing everyone of cheating. As he demonstrates only one out of three hits the target he aims for. Why? Can she solve this case before a brawl begins?

When Kathy is with Lenny at the club he owns. A large argument breaks out and they rush over to break it up. It is a group of men complaining about the dart board being rigged one in particular is having a hard time hitting the board in the same place each time or even close even though he is throwing it the same way. Another mystery for Kathy? You bet.
