This one is amazing! It is so funny that I laughed out loud multiple times. The chase scene at the end was scary and full of tension. I fell in love with these characters and the setting. This really makes you feel like you are in LA and the entertainment industry. There are plenty of clues to solve the case and Dayna is believable in her role as amateur sleuth. This is everything you would want in a cozy mystery! Perfect!
This was a super fun one sitting read. I'll definitely be picking up the second book!
One of the very best books I've read this year! I'm trying to read 1 award winning book each month and this won the Agatha Award in 2017 for Best 1st Novel and I'm not surprised! This book has comedy, great characters, loads of surprises and clean language in it (though it would not have bother me if it didn't)! I'm 70 years old and sometimes had problems with initials they used instead of saying the whole sentence but caught on to it. This is the 1st book in a series and will be looking for book 2 next! If you like mystery, comedy & twists, then read this! David N.
