Body in the Book Drop

 Body in the Book Drop is the prequel that sets the back story for the Cat Latimer series by Lynn Cahoon.  I actually have  not read any of this series previously so it was interesting to start with a prequel before reading any  of the other books.   I think the series might be interesting as there is an element of suspense built into the series since Cat's mother and Uncle seem to be keeping some information about her hometown a secret.  Cat is a graduate student who finds herself investigating the death of Albert Hines after her mother discovers his body.  The mystery  is interesting and enjoyable although I did find the conclusion a bit abrupt.  I look forward to reading more of the series in the future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

intriguing novella

Looking forward to reading more about Cat and Aspen Hills. The stage is set for a big secret surrounding the town. This particular mystery was interesting and well structured but it did reach a conclusion a bit abruptly. I am interested to read more in the series
