I realized after picking up this book that it was 14th in the series. I was hesitant at first but a review on the back of the book said you could read these books stand-alone so I thought I would try it since I love the movie Arsenic and Old Lace so a spoof of the movie in a book seemed neat. I enjoyed the sudko and crossword puzzles in the book that helped with the clues and I enjoyed the story line. Cora is a feisty character (I would benefit more if I read the other series) but Parnell does a good job keeping you informed just in case you have not read others in the series. It is a very quick who-done it read with a nice twist at the end. Reading so many of the who-done it style books I had a feeling who did it but the reasoning was the great twist. Good summer by the beach or stuck in a car for a while read. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"When an elderly boarder at a Bakerhaven bed-and-breakfast drops dead during afternoon tea, there's nothing particularly suspicious about it--except for the Sudoku in his jacket pocket. But when a second body turns up in the window seat and an autopsy shows both men were poisoned with elderberry wine, the Puzzle Lady suspects she's dealing with a cold-blooded killer who for some reason is copying the Cary Grant movie Arsenic and Old Lace, in which two old ladies who run a boarding house poison elderly widowers and bury them in the basement. More murders, more puzzles, and a grave dug in the cellar seem to cement the theory. Ordinarily, Cora would eat a case like this for breakfast, but for once she can't figure it out. And she's not sure if the clues don't add up, or if the much-married Puzzle Lady is just distracted by being involved in her first romantic entanglement in years. This latest in Hall's Puzzle Lady series is filled with laughs, mayhem, and fun new puzzles by Will Shortz. Mystery and puzzle fans will find much to enjoy"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Anyway, I enjoyed this, probably not enough to go find any of the other 13 novels in the series, but if I get a craving, it’s nice to know they exist. ( )
