Cookies and Clairvoyance by Bailey Cates

4.0

This is the 8th installment of the Magical Bakery Mystery series which is one of my favorite paranormal cozy mystery series. The author does a wonderful job of combining the paranormal theme with a culinary theme. I like the way the author writes the paranormal aspect of the series without it overpowering the plot, the mystery or being a distraction. The characters are well developed and if you are a fan of the series it is like visiting with old friends. Katie and Declan are settling in and getting ready for the wedding. We also get to meet Katie's dad Skylar in this book and find out a bit more about his magic. The mystery was well done and while the culprit was not a surprise, the author did a good job of laying down clues that tended to throw suspicion on to other suspects. The culprit was revealed in a climatic fashion that has unintended consequences for Declan.

I'm looking forward to seeing where the author takes this series and the characters in the future. I will definitely be returning to Savanah to visit the Honeybee Bakery.
