Schooled in Murder by Victoria Gilbert - 5 Stars!


Jennifer ‘Jenn’ Dalton is an author and educator at Clarion University in Virginia. When a confrontation between a professor and one of Jenn’s students, Mia, escalates, no one thinks much of it, until his dead body is found. With the sleuthing skills Jenn has acquired writing murder mysteries, she’s determined to solve the case and clear Mia’s name.

This was a wonderful start to a great cozy mystery series. Jenn is a wonderful amateur sleuth who has learned her investigative skills through writing mysteries. The setting of this story reminded me of the time when I was in college, and I could honestly see what the author was describing clearly. The plot was wonderfully created with red herrings and clues, and I couldn't figure out whodunit, and was surprised when the murderer was revealed. Thanks to Crooked Lane Books and NetGalley for this advanced reader's copy. This review is my honest opinion.
