This is the third in the Card-making Mystery series, and is similar to the others. It is a light, easy read as are most cozy mysteries. It features Jennifer Shane, the owner of the local hand made card shop, and her "assistant", her Aunt Lillian.
Jennifer is named Businessperson of the Year, which is a surprise to many. The problem with her winning is that the president of the local Chamber of Commerce, Eliza Glade, is an enemy of Jennifer's sister, Sarah Lynn, and the award is a slam to Sarah Lynn, especially after the announcement detailing why the award was given to Jennifer.
During the awards dinner, it is discovered that someone has been murdered in the kitchen area.The main suspect is Sarah Lynn, as the victim is Eliza, who not only is Sarah Lynn's enemy, but has started an affair with Sarah Lynn's husband. Jennifer, with Sarah Lynn and Aunt Lillian's help, feels compelled to help her sister out by solving the crime. This worries Jennifer and Sarah Lynn's brother, Bradford, who also happens to be the local sheriff.
I found this story to be an enjoyable read, and appreciate the relationship between Jennifer, Sarah Lynn, Aunt Lillian, and Bradford.
