5.0 out of 5 stars The Legend of Cabot Cove, November 28, 2000

This review is from: Murder, She Wrote: Trick or Treachery (Paperback)

I received this book as a gift, and couldn't be happier with it. I've read several of the Murder, She Wrote books, and found this one to be my favorite so far.

Jessica Fletcher is pulled into another mystery right in Cabot Cove. This is a Halloween novel, and deals with ghosts, legends, communicating with the dead, and stolen formulas.

All the action starts at a huge Halloween party given in one of Cabot Coves mansions, and progresses into the nearby cemetery. The characters have real development through the story, and following suit, the novel takes an unexpected turn at the end. This book is perfect for a cold night at home, and a big cup of tea.

This review is from: Murder, She Wrote: Trick or Treachery (Paperback)

Wow! I just got the book a few days ago and was not able to put it down. The writing is of the highest quality, and is a real "page-turner" from the very beginning. Jessica and Seth are planning to attend the annual Halloween party in costume, Seth as a military man and Jessica as "The Legend of Cabot Cove", setting up the reader for a fascinating tale! The book starts out promising a lot of intrigue, and it doesn't let you down! This is the best book I've read in awhile!
