Widow's Wreath by Cynthia Wriggs
published by Crooked Lane Books
MY REVIEW
A murder mystery where the groom is so horrid everyone wants
to kill him. This is a fun read about
two greedy and very poor people thinking the other is rich and determining to
marry one another. Penny is penniless (I could not resist writing that) and her
soon to be betrothed, Rocco, has been cut off by his father. They just don’t
quite know it yet. The joke is on both of them but only one is the nasty,
selfish, self-centered person almost everyone on the island wants to do away
with. It seems the wedding is planned
and everyone begins to show up at the house of Penny’s elderly, sweet, very
wise cousin, Victoria Trumbull.
There were a lot of characters in this story and sometimes
that can confuse the storyline or the reader for that matter. This didn’t seem
to be the case with Rigg’s story. Each character had a very distinct
personality making it easy to keep track of who was who so to speak. The same
is true of the description of Victoria Trumbull’s beautiful home. I wanted to
visit it. As I said, I enjoyed this story and it kept me interested enough to
keep the pages turning fairly fast.
This is book 14 of a series titled Martha’s Vinyard Mysteries. They seem to all have good reviews so
should be worth the time checking out.
