This is the second book in this series. However this is my first time reading a book by this author. If you are like me and just trying out this author, than you don't have to worry as this book can be read as a stand alone story. The residents of ReVisions Retirement Residence are quirky but in a good way. I did not feel like any of them where there to just grow old. In fact, they kind of remind me of the characters from the board game Clue. Despite this fun fact, I was impartial to the story as a whole and how Kira solved it. It was not all bad as there were moments where I was focused on the story and liked what I read. Although I was not a fan of this book, readers who like cozy mysteries may like this book due to the characters and the fact that it does read like a cozy mystery. ( )
