Shotgun, Wedding, Bells is the next book in the Kiki Lowenstein series. In this installment there are wedding bells as the name applies but there is definitely something more sinister afoot as well. This is a heavier storyline than most of the series and definitely more than your typical cozy. I cannot help but keep downloading the next book as I finish the previous one. The books are capturing my attention and I cannot wait to see how the next one goes. The books are set within weeks of one another and since Chad Detweiler is a police officer it makes more sense than some of the series where the amateur sleuths keep finding victims.
All in all I really enjoy these books and enjoy reading about the different crafts as well.
Shotgun, Wedding, Bells by Joanna Campbell Slan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
another wonderful Kiki adventure
This was a detailed mystery that definitely included information on Topics most people are unfamiliar with. I enjoyed reading the author note at the end because it confirmed the deeper social issues that appear in the Kiki Lowenstein books are an intentional and conscious inclusion in each book. I would recommend reading the series in order as there are building relationships and past stories referenced in the books. I enjoyed this book but readers should know it didn’t have as much light hearted banter as many of the series do. It is definitely a heavier cozy mystery
