Book 16, 2014
Just finished reading Murder Past Due by Miranda James. It's the first in the cozy mystery series featuring library archivist Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel. I'm such a sucker for cats and cozy mysteries!
Local boy turned millionaire, best-selling author Godfrey Priest returns to Athena. He and Charlie were classmates in school, where Godfrey was a bully and a jerk. When Godrey is found murdered in his hotel room, another friend asks Charlie to look into the mystery.
The book was interesting, although not engrossing. I don't often read books with a male protagonist's first person pov, so that took some getting used to. I enjoyed the story, however. I was kept guessing right up to the end as to "who dunnit".
I have a few more books in the series, and I look forward to reading them.
Three stars:
★★★
