MY REVIEW:  I received an ARC for an honest review.
I love the Caprice De Luca mysteries. Caprice is a quirky women that loves to wear retro clothes, she has a business saying house. Unfortunately she seems to find dead bodies as well. The body she finds this time hits close to home and as the police warn her off she can’t help but ask questions. Even with her personal life not in a good place she still does good and helps others. I love the way her attitude stays positive and the way she holds her head up high. It seems like the whole town has her back as well. 
This is a mystery and it is part of a series you can read it as a standalone, however it is best to read in order to know who everyone mentioned in the story is.
