Ugh - what a TERRIBLE ending! I've worked my way though six of these books and this is the thanks I get?

I even stayed up way past my bedtime last night to finish it because I desperately wanted to know 'who done it.' Had I known what was going to happen I would've given myself a pedicure instead and locked this book in a closet. ( )

Aurora Teagarden has a visit from her husband's niece, Regina, who has a baby with her. When Regina's husband turns up dead in Aurora's backgarden and Regina goes missing Aurora becomes involved in the mystery.

Interesting and complicated and I enjoyed the read. ( )

Another good mystery, better than the previous book. Surprisingly, after 4 books, she suddenly got over her sudden wrap up, which I found annoying. Instead, she's added a bit more complexity with a second mystery along the way & then stretched out the finale. Still tied up as neatly, but not all in a single page. I liked it much better. ( )

A fast read and fairly enjoyable read. Lots of information about Roe and Martin in this book. But somehow the dreadful things that happen in this book, murder and a mother abandoning her baby felt trite rather than terrible, although Roe's reaction to looking after a baby for the first time did have a feeling of authenticity. These books pass the time, but are not a 'must' read in the way that the Southern Vampire/True Blood series are. ( )
