This scrapbooking mystery series is located in New Orleans, the city of love, danger and a whole lot of drinking. The protagonist, Carmela Bertrand, owns Memory Mine, a scrapbooking store in the French Quarter. Her boyfriend, Edgar Babcock, is a police detective for the city. Her best friend, Ava, loves to dress in as skimpily and as tightly as possible. This story takes place just before Christmas. Carmela and Ava attend an outdoor fair where you can buy different things from vendors and some of the local restaurants are serving tasty treats and tasty wine. Needless to say, there is a murder there. Carmela is asked by a friend, Quinn Brevard, to help solve the murder because he is their prime suspect. Of course, Babcock forbids her to become involved at all. She, of course, doesn't listen to him. That causes them to argue, like always. It is interesting to see how the plot twists and turns until you don't know or can't figure out who the bad guys really are! It was a fun read.
