I don’t usually like these type of books but I really enjoyed the small town cast of characters. It was easy to relate to with a twist of an ending.

Great read, solid characters, good plot.

Great plot and twists and turns on who done it.

Poppy McGuire’s small town sleuthing begins when an unlikable town resident dies unexpectedly. Poppy immediately sees clues pointing to murder though her friend on the police force doesn’t see it. After making the acquaintance of a retired Baltimore cop, she neglects her job as an investigative reporter to do some real investigating with Alex Montero. I love cozy mysteries but something about the writing on this one reminded me of conversing with teenagers, so I struggled to finish it.

Loved the mystery in Sunset Ridge. The storyline flowed nicely between the two characters — Poppy and Alex, as they got to know each other and to solve a murder in a quite small town. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

But I couldn’t see what other reviewers saw. The main character should have been someone I liked but some decisions seemed out of character and the whole Alex situation even the ending seemed not well thought out.

Very suspenseful. Didn’t, know who did it until the end. Loved it and look forward to reading more books from the Poppy McGuire Mysteries.

A very compelling page turner 😮

Good plot and surprising twists
