What readers say
Readers enjoy these short Oregon-coast cozies for the coffee-shop gossip, a heroic boxer named Rebel, recipes at the end of each book and quick, easy plots with a few twists, and fans say later installments are stronger than the opener. Opinion on the first book is mixed, though. Common criticisms are a meddlesome heroine who ignores warnings and puts her dog at risk, a sheriff who shares case details unrealistically, flimsy police procedure, stilted dialogue and flat characters, rushed endings, uneven editing and heavier subject matter than some expect from a cozy.
Best for: Readers who want quick, light small-town cozies with a dog and recipes and don't mind loose realism.
