Tamales at High Noon: A Little Tombstone Cozy Mystery

by Celia Kinsey

Following a long-awaited wedding at Little Tombstone, both the bride and a guest fall ill after eating leftover tamales from the reception at the Bird Cage Cafe. While Emma is still embroiled in trying to figure out why anyone in their right mind would try to poison the bride, more mayhem strikes the village of Amatista, and it's a race against time to catch a would-be killer before he (or she) succeeds in his (or her) evil schemes.

More please!

I love Maxwell! The kid is a stitch! And I love all these slightly wacky characters living in the tiny town near Little Tombstone. These books have humor, interesting plots, lots of action, and just plain fun! I'm completely engaged, but I need more in this series. Soon!

Fun cozy mystery!

I always enjoy Celia Kinsey's books and this one is as enjoyable as the others I have read. Fun read!

2.75 stars. Still fun and easy, but the resolution of the mystery was a little thin this time. Some explanation from the mouth of the person/people responsible would've really helped to fill things out. And I'm really hoping for some development in the romance department next book! :)

A riotously fun ook

A dog, a pig and a town full of different people make the substance of this book. An unusual Illness of a new bride and the mail man also are integral to the plot.
