The Swan Dress Murders
(A Cozy Craft Mystery)
By Millie Ravensworth
Review:
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all four of the Cozy Craft Mystery books. This fourth instalment is just as good as the rest.
The murders need solving a rather unusual outfit needs to be made - but this time add in to the mix that Penny actually has to make a decision about the two men in her life.
This is the first time I found myself being annoyed with Penny and the feeling that she was leading poor Aubrey on. I have become rather fond of the painter/decorator and couldn’t help thinking that he deserves more.
I’m undecided on how I feel about the outcome of the romance issue but hope in a future book it might resolve itself.
As always the characters from previous stories pop up and the theme carries on - you could still read each book as a standalone and they would still work very well.
The murders in this book are a little more personal and close to home - well thought through by the author and small clues drop fed throughout that when you look back you question why you hadn’t worked it out sooner.
Overall I found the book a pleasure to read - it flowed easily and I found myself eager to pick it back up and carry on.
Book blurb:
The Swan Dress Murders
Cozy Craft Mysteries can be read in any order. A funny whodunnit series, full of charming characters and mysteries that will keep you guessing to the very end.
A wedding is a cause for celebration. Not only do dressmakers Penny and Izzy get an invite to the big day but they have an unusual dress commission to complete for one of the guests.
It seems Penny’s only problem is deciding which potential boyfriend to take as her plus-one guest — practical handyman Aubrey or cultured fabric expert Oscar.
But bigger problems arise when the maker of the wedding cake is found dead in the grounds of the stately home where the wedding is to take place.
And when another key individual in the wedding plans is also murdered, it seems like someone has deadly plans to prevent this marriage.
Can Penny and Izzy unravel the mystery and solve this crime before the big day is fatally ruined?
If your ideal book features mystery, friendship, cute romance, crafting and a charming rural setting then this is the book for you.
