This was a pivotal book for the series, and well done. Some books do not survive the loss of tension when the two love interests marry; not so with Jake and Suzanne, as we get to see them struggle to work together well on the murder of the newest police chief.Also, can the detecting duo of Grace and Suzanne make room for Jake, while leaving his ego intact? All in all, interesting subthreads throughout the book with a stunning conclusion. These factors, plus Beck's wry humor, combined for a great cozy read!
