An Old Corpse Mystery!

 

On Spine of Death (By the Book Mysteries, #2)On Spine of Death by Tamara Berry
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Bestselling author Tess Harrow and her teenage daughter Gertrude have decided to make Winthrop their home. They're turning the family hardware store that Tess inherited from her late grandfather into the town's first independent bookstore. But when renovations unearth bones from a cold case Tess calls in a fellow horror author for reinforcements. Together, they'll come up with a perfect story to make all the clues fit, and solve a mystery more than thirty years in the making.
This was a very interesting cozy mystery. I felt like I was missing something from the start. I realized I didn’t understand the romantic subplot. I think I will have to read the first story in the series. Otherwise, the characters were likeable, and the plot kept me turning the pages until the end. Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this advanced reader’s copy. This review is my unbiased opinion.
