Mack's Bar is one of those nice, friendly places where everybody knows your name. That's great when someone's buying you a round, but not so hot when you find yourself at the top of a list of murder suspects - with your fingerprints on the bloody knife!
Mackenzie 'Mack' Dalton is a Milwaukee bar owner with a nose for trouble - literally. A neurological glitch has left her with extra perceptive senses. So when she stumbles upon a dead body in the alley behind the bar - the same spot where her own father was shot eight months earlier - she can tell right away there's something fishy in the air. The lead detective thinks there's a link between the two deaths, and he'll need Mack's help to sniff out the murderer amid the crowd of eccentric regulars. But when all the evidence points to her as the most likely culprit, it could be an early last call for Mack-and celebratory cocktails for a killer.

I was completely fascinated and hooked by the book bulb when I learned that the MC would have Synesthesia. Synesthesia:the subjective sensation of a sense other than the one being stimulated. For example, a sound may evoke sensations of colour. Having learned about this from medical and even cooking...
This is definitely a cozy with a "twist"! The main character has synesthesia........you don't run across that in a character every day. I had heard of this condition and read a little about it, but this book really expanded my knowledge on the subject. Great, colorful characters, especially Cora,...
Excellent start to a series that could be a lot of fun. That half star? Only because I'm not a huge fan of the bar setting - it brings to mind that nasty, dingy atmosphere that smells like beer, smoke, and the sickly sweet smell of drunks. Blech. BUT, one can see the potential in such a setting an...
