As a start to a new series, this book is pretty good. Much of the book sets up character relationships and histories, with a focus on the main character and her new role as owner of Artisans Alley. The main character Katie is believable and much more street smart than your average cozy mystery heroine, which I appreciate. The secondary characters are also well developed and the plot believable. I look forward to the upcoming adventures of Katie Bonner and the merchants of Victoria Square!
I love this author's other series and this book which is the start to her new series wasn't a disappointment. I enjoyed it and am looking forward to read the books to follow.

Light hearted and much like the other books she writes as Lorna Barrett. I really like her style. Good cozy with enjoyable characters.
