A family of three moves to a new house in Washington, D.C. suburb. Father/husband is a reassigned federal employee. Wife/mother decides to collect neighbors' bagged leaves to fill a wet corner on her lawn. That & reestablishing her writing career give her something to do. Her daughter is a teenager making new friends in high school. Which neighbor put body parts in bags? MULCH will appeal to gardeners, anybody who has visited or lived in nation's capital, & murder mystery readers. -- ( ) This is the start of a new series that calls itself 'cozy" but almost reads as a political thriller in spots. The identity of the killer is not hidden, but trying to figure out just which of the folks in the neighborhood it is takes a bit of doing. But, like any good mystery series, it will be the characters that bring me back to this series for more. 4 Great start to a series. Good characters. Quick read. A couple spots seemed to jump a bit, but the book was still enjoyable. Family moves to Washington area. Mother is an organic gardner, and gathers leaf bags from around the neighborhood for mulching purposes. Unfortunately, someone disposed of body parts in the bags. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
