Entertaining cozy,
This review is from: Death at a Discount (A Susan Henshaw Mystery #13) (Mass Market Paperback)
The opening of a new outlet mall has everyone excited about purchasing designer items at discount rates. That is everyone except Amanda Worth, who even her spouse Scott knows she wouldn't be caught dead in a bargain environment. However, the next day, Susan Henshaw and Kathleen Gordon find the impossible as Amanda lies dead murdered in a dressing room at the new mall.Susan, unable to accept the impossible and not comfortable with the official police investigation into Amanda's murder, begins her own inquiries. To her shock, Susan soon learns that Amanda had a secret that probably killed her, because if it was revealed could ruin many people. If the killer learns that Susan knows the secret, she probably will join Amanda. DEATH AT A DISCOUNT is an entertaining cozy that fans of the sub-genre will enjoy. Valerie Wolzien expeditiously interchanges Susan's personal life with her amateur sleuthing. That technique makes the heroine and other key players seem real and in turn strengthens the mystery. This series is fun to read and this particular entry will provide much pleasure to Henshaw and other fans of amateur sleuth cozies. Harriet Klausner

I always thought shopping was murder,

This review is from: Death at a Discount (A Susan Henshaw Mystery #13) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the first of the Susan Henshaw mysteries that I have read. I liked the premise of a murder in an outlet mall. The characters were interesting and the mystery fairly difficult to solve.

Great Addition to a Great Series,
By "imjenjen2001" (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death at a Discount (A Susan Henshaw Mystery #13) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the best in a fun and entertaining series. The characters are lively and realistic (easy to recognize people we all know) and the story moves along nicely. There are a number of threads that all weave together smoothly by the end. The author's subtle, tongue-in-cheek humor adds a nice touch.
