Murder at the Taffy Shop by Maddie Day is the second book in the Cozy Caper Group Mystery Series and my third book for 2022.
When your mother is an astrologist and your dad is a minister, you learn to keep an open mind. Which is just what Mac loves to do—exercise her mind by puzzling out fictional clues in the mystery novels she reads and discusses with her Cozy Capers Book Group.
But now Mac’s friend Gin has found herself in a sticky situation. After wealthy genealogist Beverly Ruchart is found dead outside Gin’s taffy shop, the candy maker becomes a person of interest. When it’s revealed that Beverly was poisoned the night Gin brought a box of taffy to a dinner party at Beverly’s house, she’s bumped to the top of the suspects list. It’s up to Mac and her Cozy Capers crime solvers to unwrap this real-life mystery. But this time they might have bitten off more than they can chew . . .
I enjoyed this book more than book one. I think I was more familiar with all of the characters at this point so it helped. The mystery was interesting and kept me guessing. My one complaint of this book is I don’t like the main character’s bf. He’s too perfect and Mac always acts like she doesn’t deserve him when I think it’s the other way around. I’m hoping she kicks him to the curb in book 3. Click here if you are interested in purchasing.
