After hearing so much about this series, I finally got started on it. I enjoyed this first book so much, that I'm scrambling around to get all the other books in the series. I can't wait to read more!

You will really like this book. I have become addicted to this series, it's funny, smart and a quick read. A different type of heroine, one you would really like to know in real life.

I finally read the first book of the series! We are introduced here to suburban moms Jane Jeffry and her neighbor Shelley Nowack. The fun begins when the cleaning lady is murdered in Shelley's house. Detective Mel Van Dyne investigates all their neighbors, and Jane and Shelley decide to poke their noses in when it becomes clear that one of their friends has to be the murderer of the blackmailing maid. A fun read with a clever mystery, it's clear why this one won the Agatha award.

Found this to be very coarse, will try one more and if not better will give up. Not a cozy as far as I'm concerned, too much foul language.
