A review by marjma2014
Academic Curveball by James J. Cudney

4.0

A light-hearted murder mystery set in an academic setting with strong family vibes. I enjoyed this cozy story. It is for you if you like a well written story with lots of engaging dialogue. It is perhaps a bit different from what I would normally read but it is good to try new genres from time to time. I particularly enjoyed the main character's Kellan Ayrwick's feisty Nana who is such a fun character! Kellan is a widower with a young daughter, he works on a true crime television series called "Dark Reality." His father's retirement party at Braxton Campus brings more than he expects when Abby Monroe is found dead and it soon becomes clear that her death is not of natural causes.

Recommended  reading for those who enjoy humour as a side dish to garnish their murder mystery.
