In this fourth book in the Maine Clambake cozy mystery series, it’s the off season and Julia and her boyfriend Chris have just started opening Gus’s for dinner to supplement their income and provide a gathering place for people in town since all the summer restaurants are closed. At the start of the book, Gus, who also rents Julia the upstairs apartment over his restaurant, comes up the stairs to tell her there is a dead body in the walk-in freezer… and the mystery fun ensues. This one was a particularly good mystery. I love how each of these mysteries always are very restaurant-food focused, and this was no exception. The mystery this time involved a stranger no one had seen before in town, a car accident, and a cold foggy Maine night. A perfect murder mystery! I really enjoyed the way the clues unfolded.

I have read later books in this series and they were much more enjoyable. The basic premise sounded great, but the execution was wanting. Also, the protagonist was infinitely more self centered. And we won't even discuss the multiple horrid mispronunciations by the narrator--no, it was not due to regional or even national dialect. So far, I love this series! I love the food descriptions and the descriptions of places. Julia & Chris's relationship is interesting (and I don't say that about many romances in mysteries). This mystery didn't make light of terrible events, but it wasn't gloomy, either. I liked the opening structure, incorporating flashbacks. I felt like the reveals came at a good pace. It had something to say about friendship. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
