First in a new cozy mystery series set in Burlington, Vermont. J.J. (Josephine June) Tanner has recently moved to Burlington to accept a job as an event planner with her college friend Skye Drake. When the caterer is murdered at the end of J.J.'s first big party, she finds herself and several of her friends as prime suspects in his death. Another enjoyable aspect of this story is that J.J. and three of her friends have formed a Dinner Club called Culinary Capers where they prepare a meal once a month using recipes from the same cookbook. I really enjoyed the characters and the food chatter in this story. Very much looking forward to reading the second book when it comes out!
