When Murder at the Moonshine Inn
opens, readers learn that it's been eight years since Hazel Rose--a computer
programmer turned romance novelist and super-sleuth--solved the murder of a disgruntled
Richmond, Va. book club member who died after sipping cyanide-laced tea at a
book club discussion.
In this second installment, Hazel goes
undercover to find out who killed Roxanne Howard, a willful and high-powered
executive, in the parking lot of a local redneck watering hole. Roxanne's grief-stricken sister enlists Hazel's
help to find the killer as Roxanne's husband,
Brad, is actually Hazel's distant cousin—and he also becomes the prime suspect
in his wife's murder.
As Hazel gets drawn deeper into the mystery--and
enlists the help of her shrewd, clever, mystery-loving book club cohorts--more
complications ensue that involve Hazel's distant relatives and a long list of
possible suspects ranging from Roxanne's rivals to former employees.
Hazel's fifth husband, a retired Richmond homicide
detective who is a writer of true crime books, offers Hazel pertinent
information into the investigation that aids her quest to flush out the murderer.
What was the motive—love or money...or maybe revenge? When a second murder
occurs, red herrings thwart Hazel's investigation until her own safety comes at
risk.
King (Murder at
the Book Group) delivers another well-written, suspenseful cozy filled
with a charming, quirky cast of book-loving characters and a plot that tightens
before it ultimately unspools into a surprising conclusion.
