Lemon Bars with a Side of Murder

 

Lemon Bars with a Side of Murder is the 4th book in the Daley Buzz series by Meredith Potts.  

If the previous installment had suspects with whom Sabrina was familiar, this book hit even closer to home.  Past close relationships with 2 of the suspects made for some very awkward interrogations.   The murder within this story seems to be tied into the secret society in Treasure Cove that Sabrina and David had been trying to investigate.  Meredith Potts created a mystery that tied up a few loose ends and answered some questions that had been outstanding since previous books.  There is a bit of far fetchedness to these mysteries but they are still enjoyable.  I am curious to see if as the extreme conspiracy aspect wraps up if the mysteries become a little more plausible.   

Lemon Bars with a Side of Murder by Meredith Potts
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This next book continues on the investigation of strange activities in Treasure Cove. It definitely is best to read these books in order as there is a bit of overlap from story to story. Sabrina is continuing to investigate crimes with her Detective boyfriend, David Carlson. The mysteries are short and enjoyable. At times there is a campiness to the stories but they are fun to read. They aren't necessarily the most deep and developed mysteries with tons of details, but there is an ongoing thread that indicates a well thought out plot line that makes the books very enjoyable. If you have a sweet tooth at all this series will provide a sugar fill or make your mouth water. Either way I plan to continue to read the series to see how Treasure Cove evolves
