I love Lynn Cahoon and so how I missed that she had another series that spun off from her Tourist Trap Mystery series is beyond me, but I'm delighted to find this! While this is part of a series it worked well as a stand alone, with enough detail to bring me up to speed in such a way that I was rushing to Amazon to find the other books in this series. Like her other books, this was an easy (but late night) read that sucked me in - the mystery, the characters, and the clever plot made for a wonderful escape! She kept me guessing with the "whodunnit" and she didn't disappoint! This third book in the series ties up some loose ends that began with the first book. Cat has gotten some closure concerning the death of her ex-husband, though Shauna is in need of closure herself when her fiancé is found dead in his barn. Some consider her a suspect in his death, but Cat is determined to prove her innocence. The enjoyment of this series lies not only in the intricate plots, but also in the engaging characters and quaint setting. Cat Latimer has her January writers' retreat people coming. This is her fourth retreat, but only one has gone off without a hitch. This time, the partners are back in the middle of a murder investigation. Cat's friend and business partner, Shauna, has recently gotten engaged and is spending a lot of time at Kevin's ranch. She heads over for dinner, taking a pot of stew for dinner. After returning to the house, she does not trust Cat to get breakfast ready, she is woken in the middle of the night by Cat's Uncle Pete. Kevin is dead, he was poisoned and the poison was in the stew. Not only is Shauna devastated, but she is also a suspect, especially since she recently bought rat poison at the local hardware store. Cat is now investigation Michael's death (her ex-husband) and Kevin's. Will she be able to find the real murderer before something happens to Shauna? Will she be able to find out what happened to Michael without putting herself in danger? I really enjoyed Shirley, a retired police detective who is on the retreat so she can write a police procedural. She was so funny. You could tell she really liked Uncle Pete, but she tells everyone it is a professional relationship. There is a lot of teasing going on there. She also helps Cat with her investigation of Michael's death and they do some sleuthing together. I hope she sticks around in the next few books as a love interest for Uncle Pete. The other members of the retreat didn't play much of a role in this book, except for the College Student who was there in the college spot. I really enjoy the relationship Cat, Shauna and Seth have in these books. They are partners and best friends, almost like siblings, although Seth really wants to rekindle the high school romance he had with Cat. I was glad to see Michael's murder solved, but I think there is still a bit more for Cat to find out. It is fun to visit Cat and her gang in Colorado and I look forward to my next visit. Just as Cat Latimer's newest writer's retreat session is about to start Cat's partner Shauna finds that her fiancé is missing and is later found dead. Cat has to keep the retreat on an even keel help her friend through the trauma, and at the same time find out what happened. The setting of a writer's retreat is so much fun and brings great fresh characters each time. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

At first I wasn’t sure that I cared for the continuing story-line concerning
The standalone mystery with this one seemed hardly to matter as the continuing series mystery really took over. ( )
