This mystery could have been a novella or short story. Too many pages and not enough plot. The names of the "romantic" couple are too cutsey--Gilbert and Sullivan. Come on! Characters were likable enough for me to finish the book but not enough to read any more of the series.

Great little 'cozy' read. It lost momentum a couple of times, but still a nice light read.
Erin Gilbert has been hired to organize eccentric widow, Helen Walker, who has created a maze of bric-a-brac, papers, and just plain junk thta she won't throw out. Even worse after two bizarre deaths, Helen is convinced she is being stalked by a serial killer.

Not the best cozy series out there, but not the worst, either. It's a pretty quick read, and would be even quicker if all the unnecessary and unrelated filler material were taken out. But, I guess that's part the quirky appeal of the series.... short filler chapters that "round out" the characters of Erin Gilbert and her landlady while they discuss interior decorating subjects.

My pet peeve about these books is that the author leaves out important facts early on in the story, then just plops them in at the end and explains them with a sentence or two. (ex: Gilbert says, "I'm going down to Harlem." The author explains, "Harlem is the name given to a part if the city near downtown." --- Then, after Gilbert makes the statement about going there and the author explains where it is, Sullivan saves her by figuring out where she was going and showing up in the nick of time. Oops.... did I give away a major plot line? No, I didn't think so.)
