Review: CUPCAKES AND CORPSES by Carole Fowkes


Claire is the Terrified Detective, but she was good at it. She worked two part-time jobs—one at the detective agency and the other at her aunt’s bakery, Cannoli’s. On assignment, she checks on a woman by crawling through a doggie door and finds a dead body—murdered and tied up like a birthday present. A $10K reward prompts her to find the killer.

Shortly after, another body is discovered—her old babysitter, which served as a personal vendetta. Two women killed the same way. What’ the connection? Was there a serial killer? But Claire is turned more into a loop when a third case falls on her lap—the case of a missing person. But then she ends up dead too. So there are three murders.

At first, this was pretty easy to get into…until the multiple murders get involved. You almost mix up the cases. And the lag and typos in it didn’t make it any easier. It would’ve been better if the story had focused on one case. It would’ve been easier.

My rating: 2 stars
