This is another one of those books that have two different titles and therefore confuses the heck out of me when I am trying to figure out if my library has it, needs to order it, and which one is next in the series, seriously, stick to one title please!! LOL

This is book #2 in the "Three Pines" series, I just read the first book STILL LIFE a bit ago and LOVED it and again this was another fabulous mystery! Most of the characters are back for the second book with a few new fun a quirky ones thrown in, there is just such a nice, cozy and warm way to how this author writes, it makes you want to curl up in a big lumpy chair with a hot chocolate and become one of the town folks. I love these books so much that I actually just placed an order with Amazon for book number three, for some reason my library does not have book 3, but has book 4, go figure, anyways, I can't wait to curl up with the rest of the series and find out what other secrets Three Pines has in store for me!
