A Carol for a Corpse by Claudia Bishop
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
In that I had just read one of another series with similar aims of mystery, it was easy for me to recognize this had much the other didn’t. There was a very well set setting, distinct characters and dialogue. Also, the mystery itself was far more interesting. There are some stereotyped characters and the plot is more than over used, but the sum is good. I have a real problem of how the murder took place. The effort to accomplish the task is very to nearly impossible considering the outcome. There is a lot of assumption readers know snow skiing. Having a background involving construction development, there is also a problem with how part of the plot is written involving taking over and redeveloping land.
But really the mystery is secondary to the over all story of two sisters running an inn. I liked that part best.
Bottom line: I recommend this book. 6 out of ten stars.
