Murder On The Menu by Zanna Mackenzie

crolovr's review

This is the first book I have read by Zanna McKenzie and I enjoyed this book. If you like fast reading romance mystery books with a strong female character, then this book is for you. Lizzie leaves her journalist boyfriend in London and moves into the farmhouse in Cumbria that was left to her by her aunt and uncle. She takes a job at Veggies as a waitress until she can make enough money from the farm. When Celebrity Chef Armand is murdered, Lizzie finds herself on the top of the suspect list. Lizzie meets her neighbors brother Jack who is a suspended Special Agent. Together they work to solve they mystery of who killed Armand while slowly falling in love. There are several twist and turns that keep you guessing. I am looking forward to more stories with Lizzie and Jack. I was given this book in return for an honest review.

I got about 84% of the way through this story and got so bored I just stopped reading. I think it's just not for me. I'm sure a lot of people will find this story charming and entertaining but I am just not one, unfortunately.

Many twists and turns.

Overall this was a good read, there were so many plot twists it started to get a bit over the top. There was one question left unanswered until almost the end of the book and it wasn't needed. The constant reference to it brought me out of the story since we were in the dark on it but the suspense built by not letting it known early in the story didnt live up to what it was for me. Also. The title says romantic comedy? This wasn't that. A cozy mystery yes, but not a comedy.
