This is the first book of Tim Meyers' candle making mysteries. Harrison Black has inherited a candle shop from his Great Aunt Belle who has died due to an accident in the shop. Unfortunately, Harrison comes to realize that Aunt Belle's accident was not an accident at all. It is up to Harrison to figure out 'who done it' since the local law is unwilling to help him.

This was a quick read and written well enough to keep my interest. I found, for me, that the author spent more time developing relationships amongst the characters especially between Harrison and Eve who was Aunt Belle's employee than the murder. No, Eve is much older so there is no romance! However, Eve is not happy with the appearance of Harrison, but he needs her to stick around because he knows nothing about candles!!

If you read this book, you won't be disappointed.
