Set in the 20s in Santa Fe, Maddie has moved to Santa Fe to become a painter and her Cousin Gwen is in the Movies. Now there is a film crew in the town to film a movie and Gwen is in it so she visits Maddie. Maddie is drawn into it all, there are some references to a previous murder but the story is complete without having to go back to the first book in the series.
Movie Director dies and as he's a heel there are several suspects. Maddie helps solve it, if only to exonerate her cousin.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I love historical mysteries, and was intrigued by the setting of A Death in Santa Fe — and I wasn’t disappointed. Although the mystery was well done, it was the setting that drew me in. Snappy dialogue, speakeasies, and an enchanting landscape cast a spell on me.

Although this is the third in a series, it worked well as a standalone. Maddie was a capable (and not too annoying) amateur sleuth. I have already taken out the first two in the series from my library, and look forward to reading any more to come!… (altro)

1922 Santa Fe and the film industry had arrived in town with the shooting of a film. As does Maddie Vaughn-Alwin’s cousin aspiring actress Gwen Astor. But murder also arrives.
A cozy mystery which took a long time to develop into a mystery. Unfortunately there didn't seem to be much investigating until Madddie decides who the guilty party is, and I didn't particularly take to the main character either. Although the second in the series it can easily be read as a standalone book.
A NetGalley Book… (altro)
