Murder by Death
Murder by Death rated it 6 years ago
This is one of those series that's a reliable old friend for me. Definitely cozy, a little bit frothy, and terribly innocent but never twee or precious, Dunn writes an historically accurate mystery that aims to offer a bit of harmless escapism. She generally succeeds. Daisy and her step-daught...

and new problems. This follows the usual Daisy Dalrymple trope, Daisy does something and she finds a body, only this time it's the maid and the dog who find the body (which leads to a few entertaining moments with Daisy telling people it wasn't her, honest and their not believing her.. She has to ...

Like her surname-sake Jessica, Daisy goes somewhere and there's a body. This time she's at the Tower of London by request of her editor and she stays there to see the key ceremony. She wakes early and really wants to go home to her twins but on her way out she finds a body (quelle surprise). Of cour...

Now Guy Fawkes is a problem in Ireland, burning a symbolic catholic? Yeah, not popular. Halloween is but 5th November, no. I do understand that it's a popular celebration, today largely stripped of symbolism (except in some areas, mostly in Northern Ireland where sectarianism is still a ugly, divis...

I read this, I am aware I did and I remember some of the details and I could have sworn I wrote a review, but it has evaporated into the electronic ether.

Secure Desire is my first book by R.L. Dunn. While this is definitely a 6 star story, the writing left me a little frustrated at times, lowering my rating to a 4 star. This is not a smooth read, there were times I wasn't sure who was speaking or whose thoughts I was reading. I think with a little...

By now I'd be nervous around Daisy Fletcher, she's starting to be a bit like her fellow sleuth, Jessica Fletcher, if she goes somewhere there's about to be murder. Daisy is going to her best friend's wedding and things take a twist when Lucy's great-aunt is found strangled in her bed. Then bodies ...

Daisy has a tooth problem and decides to go to a local dentist, only to find that the dentist is dead. She has to cope with the aftermath and the gossip and at the same time deal with her new life as a wife and mother. It's interesting and also having Daisy finding new friends in this community is g...

Not bad but I would like to know who were real and who weren't. Daisy gets caught up in a murder, while trying to write more about her experiences in America and finds two countries divided by a common language. Like Jessica Fletcher there is no-where she can go without attracting a dead body. Als...
