When Fizz is found dead in the kitchen by Pepper, Luke is discovered with the murder weapon and is now a suspect in the murder. Then another bartender's father is lead detective on the case, which only confuses matters for everyone. Now Pepper is on the trail of a killer who's trying to frame her friend, and she might just put herself in the frame as the next person on the hit list...
I really wanted to like this book, but it seemed off to me. I just couldn't believe that bartenders - who spend their time doling out drinks and seeing what the aftereffects are on people once they're drunk - would want to do the same. Mixologists today exude professionalism. They don't want to be bartenders forever - they want to write, own companies, etc., and to do this they can't be wasted all the time and lead healthy lifestyles.
All Pepper did was drink and lust after Neil. I found it rather tedious, and also there were other things that bothered me. Why did Neil encourage Pepper to investigate? You'd think he'd know a killer was out there and tell her to stop; and since when do homicide detectives share information with their children? Not very professional, and not believable.
So, in the end, the murderer was pretty easy to discover, but there just wasn't enough mystery and I honestly couldn't get past the point that Pepper and her friends thought the best things in life were in a bottle and find it plausible. Sorry, but three stars for the writing and that's about it.… (altro)
