Mayhem at the Orient Express by Kylie Logan
4.0
Mayhem at the Orient Express, is a relatively new series from author Kylie Logan, who also writes the Button Box mysteries, which are quite good. In this series, there is a team of sleuths, Bea Cartwright, Chandra Morrisey and Kate Wilder. They are also neighbors and end up together due to the fact that they cannot get along and the local judge is fed up with it.
Sentenced to a book club and to reading Murder on the Orient Express, the women put aside their differences in the face of a real murder at their much loved local Chinese restaurant, The Orient Express. The story line runs many parallels to Christie’s work, which makes it a wonderful read for Christie fans. The female leads are very different and there is someone for everyone to relate to. Bea is the B & B owner with the mysterious past, Kate is the consummate business woman, and Chandra is the holistic healer, earth mother type.
I really enjoyed all the characters, the ties to Christie’s work and the mystery itself. A fun, quick read for cozy mystery fans. I am sure I will read more in this series.
