A Fatal Booking centers around Chapters B&B as the hostess Charlotte and her staff and friends investigate the mysterious death of one of her guests. The plot has some slightly outrageous aspects that do not detract from the story because they are part of the backstory of characters rather than a current occupation. The interweaving of the different characters and suspects make for a very enjoyable story that keeps the reader in suspense and guessing as to who is the guilty party and what their motivation is. I do like the character development and how they are growing in their goals and aspirations.
A Fatal Booking by Victoria Gilbert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A great series with a cast of strong females of varying ages. The book mixes literary references into the story as part. Of the B&Bs theme and specialty. Charlotte and the ensemble cast are a great group of amateur detectives who cooperate with the authorities. The espionage backgrounds of characters adds an interesting flair
