Miami Slice #4
Laced With Murder
Sometimes you just want to cast your former life aside…
Like and old shoe.
After her old job went up in flames, pizzeria manager and amateur sleuth, Cassandra McNeil, never expected to be involved in the shoe selling business again, but her old life collides with her new one when a local hotel hosts a shoe store convention and some of her old coworkers come to town.
With a handful of familiar faces to contend with – some that she parted on good terms with, and some not so much – she’s expecting it to be a busy week. She doesn’t expect it to be a deadly one.
When one of the pizzeria’s regulars is found dead just outside the hotel that is hosting the convention, Cassandra can’t stay away. She has to know what happened and why.
Is her past coming back to haunt her, or is the man’s killer someone from closer to home?
Find out in this delicious Cozy Mystery!

Patti Bennington is an amazing writer. She is able to start every series strong and never falters. This book is no exception! Her characters are multifaceted and this book is well written, keeps you guessing, and easily read in one sitting because you just can’t put it down.

What should've been a halfway pleasant reunion with some former coworkers turned deadly. The whodunit wasn't really hard to guess this time, but it was fun to see how Cassie sleuthed it out with Antonio. I just love those two together, they're so darn cute! At one point I was yelling at Cassie in my mind not to go somewhere, but she went anyway, and the rest is history since it did cause the perp to get caught.
It'll be interesting to see how it goes now that Bridget moved out of Cassie's apartment since she's actually earning money and doing okay again. I could tell the sisters were missing each other, but at least Cassie might have a little more privacy if a certain cute security guard wants to come watch TV! Looking forward to borrowing the next on KU!

Quite enjoyable
I really liked this one. It was pretty easy to figure out who the killer was this time but it was still fun seeing it all unfold.
