Fran is anticipating her trip to Italy with Matty… until a precious diamond ring is stolen from the town’s jewelry store and an employee is murdered. Fran suspects the storeowner of insurance fraud, but what if she’s wrong? Would her life be at stake again if she butts in on another police investigation?

Includes two recipes!

Another fun story by Harper Lin. I think I like her books because I don’t like too much suspense in a story and hers aren’t overly suspenseful. You can also go several months between books without getting lost — she spends quite a bit of time recapping so it’s easy to catch up (almost too much recapping…).

I also appreciate that her cozy mystery series actually includes character development. It frustrates me when I read a dozen books and the characters never do anything different or change.

If you’re a fan of Hannah Swenson or Murder She Wrote, I think you’ll like this series of books.

Rated PG for violence but not too much description.
