Not what I thought as the book is titled Peppermints and Pandemonium and the jacket says a toy store owner drowns at the Christmas party. Instead I read A Crime Of Cranberry and it says in title page “A Crime of Cranberry Copy”. A Crime of Cranberry was fairly good with the story centering on Charlotte- a cafe owner who is also a witch and her familiars who are rabbits and a cat. A cooking contest judge is Murdered and Charlotte gets entangled in trying to figure out the killer. Interesting storyline and hard to follow at times.

If you enjoy books with witches and talking animals, this is the one for. you. It's a quick read. It wasn't that great in my opinion.
