When a tragic mixer mishap results in the closing of a beloved bakery, new mom and upstairs neighbor Stephanie Wu is sure of two things: One, she misses their cappuccinos. And two, it was no accident. But time is running out for the sleep-deprived sleuth. Can she solve the murder and figure out pumping before her maternity leave is up? With a baby at her breast and a killer at her back, life and living above The Likable Daisy will never be the same again.
Prove It: Murder in the Mix by Hannah R. Kurz is about a new mom wanting to right a wrong.
Will Steph be able to figure out who killed Sameed Haddad?
Stephanie Wu
Stephanie Wu is a new wife and a new mom to a beautiful baby girl. She is still trying to get her husband’s family on board with her being in his son’s life forever. Steph is a good mom who tries to make it work for herself and her family. She is doing a lot. Then you add in the whole investigating of what is deemed an accidental death.
The Mystery
Stephanie Wu takes it upon herself to investigate her friend’s accidental death when she doesn’t think it was an accident. Especially not when she realizes what he looked like. She had a tough time investigating this, and I don’t really know if I could call it investigating since she had a baby, and it was hard to do much of that. I always find it weird when a dead body shows up, but the sleuth never sees the body. Despite that, I also figured out who did it right away as well. I like how the author does this mystery differently from other cozies.
Four Stars
Prove It: Murder in the Mix by Hannah R. Kurz is a good beginning for a whole new series. Ms. Kurz is a good author. Steph handles her investigation a bit differently than other cozies I have read, and that is a nice change. I am giving it four stars and a recommendation. Despite being different, it is a great book. I found it entertaining while reading it to figure out whodunit and why. Ms. Kurz did an excellent job.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of Prove It: Murder in the Mix by Hannah R. Kurz.
