Rachel McMillan’s Murder Mystery Prize Pack and Facebook Party



{More about The Bachelor Girl’s Guide to Murder}

The Bachelor Girl’s Guide to Murder (Harvest House, April 2016)
In 1910 Toronto, while other bachelor girls perfect their domestic skills and find husbands, two friends perfect their sleuthing skills and find a murderer.
Inspired by their fascination with all things Sherlock Holmes, best friends and flatmates Merinda and Jem launch a consulting detective business. The deaths of young Irish women lead Merinda and Jem deeper into the mire of the city’s underbelly, where the high hopes of those dreaming to make a new life in Canada are met with prejudice and squalor.
While searching for answers, donning disguises, and sneaking around where no proper ladies would ever go, they pair with Jasper Forth, a police constable, and Ray DeLuca, a reporter in whom Jem takes a more than professional interest. Merinda could well be Toronto’s premiere consulting detective, and Jem may just find a way to put her bachelor girlhood behind her forever–if they can stay alive long enough to do so.

My Thoughts:

Rachel is a new author to me, the book had a feel of Ms. Marple by Agatha Christie, quirky and somewhat eccentric. The characters, Jem and Merinda are quite interesting. They go against society not getting married and becoming a housewife. They decide to solve a murder. There were some funny moments, I found the book to move slowly in many parts. It wasn't a bad book, sadly it wasn't a page turner for me. If you enjoy Sherlock Holmes type mysteries this one is definitely for you!

I received this book from Litfuse Publicity in exchange for my honest review. I received no monetary compensation.
