Stephanie M. Braun: Red, White, and Clues, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Wren Winters needs to shake up her life, but murder isn't exactly what she had in mind.

Lately life seems to have stalled a bit for Wren. She needs to make a change. Though her friends are dubious, Wren is adamant that a long weekend away at a small town bed and breakfast is just the ticket.

Shortly after she checks in Wren comes face to face with Fitz Richardson, aka the man who kissed the pants off her (literally!), only to ghost her afterward, and she writes off the weekend as a bust. But all that changes when a honeymooning groom is discovered stabbed during the fireworks show - and the culprit must be one of the other mysterious guests.

Wren is on the case. Her curiosity knows no bounds, leading her to listen in to conversations and uncover dangerous secrets. Against her better judgement, she joins forces with Fitz, and old feelings return as the two seek out answers and skirt around the slimy detective who has been dispatched to the B&B. The ground keeps shifting under feet with each new clue, though, and she is left not knowing who she can trust. She needs to keep pushing forward if she is going to discover the truth, but can she trust her instincts and make it through the weekend unscathed?

Red, White, and Clues is perfect if you like mysteries you can read poolside, suspense with a dash of humor and flirting, or anything that pays playful homage to a true classic of the genre (by which I obviously mean 1985's Clue). RW&C is whodunit meets romcom, and ideal for folks who like the Knives Out movies -- but wish there was just a bit more kissing in them.
