BOOK: July Fireworks Sky, A Cat Collier Mystery, by Carol Ann Kauffman

The Cat Collier Mysteries have been described as a modern cross between Nancy Drew and Mike Hammer. Ten of the series of twelve are published and available on Amazon.com in both kindle format and paperback. 

In July Fireworks Sky, the seventh book in the Cat Collier Mystery Short Story series, private investigator Mary Catherine Collier, known as Cat, finds herself in a disturbing, life-altering situation related to her brother’s trial. The outcome will have far reaching effects for not only herself, but Carter, Spencer, and others.

The location for this cozy mystery bounces back and forth from her quiet, sleepy hometown of Heaton Valley, Ohio to New York City, where Cat has another branch of her detective agency and a wonderful, new love. 

Will Cat finally find the honesty she’s looking for?

ENTERTAINMENT: Moon Knight (Disney+)

 I hold a widely unpopular opinion about Moon Knight. 

The storyline is good. The series has potential. The music is terrific. The cinematography is beautiful. Ethan Hawk plays a great bad guy. 

But I think Oscar Isaac is miscast. The hero from Star Wars plays a bungling, museum gift shop clerk with a gratingly fake British accent whose alter ego is imbued with the powers of an Egyptian moon god. He and his alter-ego struggle. A lot. Sometimes it’s painful to watch.

I rarely say something negative, but in this case, I would give this one a PASS instead of STREAM.

BOOK REVIEW: Death in Dalkinchie by Carly Reid

 

A killer is on the loose in the peaceful Scottish village of Dalkinchie… Can new resident Jessica Greer solve the case before they strike again?

As a junior reporter, Jessica has the observational skills of a detective – as well as the ability to find herself in the wrong place at the right time. 

Settling into her new life in Scotland, Jessica’s skills are put to the test when the head judge at the annual Dalkinchie Craft Show dies tasting the Castle Drummond Orange and Whisky Marmalade. Was he poisoned by a disgruntled villager? Or could his wife be implicated?

Jessica’s not sure… but she thinks she can find out.

With a murderer on the loose in the village, it’s down to Jessica to find the killer.

 

If you love locked-room mysteries, quirky characters, and a Scottish small-town setting, you’ll love Death in Dalkinchie.

* I really enjoyed this one! I loved the character Jessica and the little Scottish town.
