Honey Driver Mystery #1-4
The Honey Driver Murder Mystery Box Set Books 1-4
In this 4-book box set:
Book 1: Murder, Bed & Breakfast
Honey Driver has just agreed to be the new police liaison for the Bath Hotels Association — albeit reluctantly. Her opposite number in the police is Detective Steve Doherty: he’s good-looking, but uninterested in partnering with ‘Bath’s answer to Miss Marple’. Then an American tourist washes up dead on the riverbank, within sight of the famous Pulteney Bridge. Honey and Detective Doherty must work together to uncover a killer before anyone else turns up dead.
Book 2: Menu for Murder
A cooking competition between Bath’s top chefs is bound to be murder. Honey Driver’s head chef, Smudger Smith, is in the running for the grand prize. Scheming Oliver Stafford cheats his way to victory, but the very next morning, he gets his just desserts. Now Smudger is the prime suspect. With so much at stake, can Honey uncover the real killer before matters reach boiling point?
Book 3: Walking with Murder
Honey Driver agrees, rather grudgingly, to join a ghost walk around the crescents and terraces of historic Georgian Bath. Then one of the walkers is found hanged in a dusty antiques shop — murdered. The victim is Lady Templeton-Jones, an obnoxious American aristocrat who was lured away from the walk. And straight into the killer’s noose. It’s up to Honey to investigate. But does she have a ghost of a chance of solving the mystery?
Book 4: The Jane Austen Murders
Honey is thrilled to be an extra in a sumptuous new flick about Jane Austen. But she soon finds out showbiz isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. The cameras have barely begun to roll when the film’s leading lady is found dead. Slumped over her dressing table in a pool of her own blood. Someone has stabbed the acid-tongued thespian with a hatpin. The only clue: a bloodstained script left at the scene. And, just like that, Honey finds she’s landed her own starring role. As prime suspect . . .

The book set was too much. The first couple of books were pretty good. After a while, I simply questioned the sanity of the characters examples: How many stiletto heels does one have to break -- before you learn not to wear them on cobblestone streets? I understand that after hours bars are a thing, and a good thing, but these middle aged folks are going to work at the crack of dawn and then getting drinks starting after midnight, multiple nights a week. I'm not sure I know anyone over 35 that could show up to work the next day and not look like they had been run down by a bus. I continued to read the books for location - Bath seems like a much better destination than London for tourists, and the history details are interesting. However, I gave up in book 4, the characters were getting more and more unlikable, unbelievable and generally boring.

Over the top but a good read.
Not your normal whodunit by any means. But a good laugh and we'll written.
Will they, won't they in the romance department. I think the suspense may be more enticing than the act.
Love the batty American and the Mother is just delightful, in a crusty way lol.

Satisfying and relaxing book set.
Great light-hearted reading with some interesting colorful characters that have failings and don't need to be perfect. Set in a historical city of intriguing architecture.

Really easy read with the twist of murder and just a bit of romance with Honey Driver and policeman friend Inspector Doherty.
