A review by kristirose
Killer Jam by Karen MacInerney

5.0

After years of working in Houston as a reporter, Lucy Resnick cashed in her life savings to purchase her grandmother’s farm. A few months later, she is horrified to learn that the land’s mineral rights were not included with the farm’s title. When the person attempting to drill for oil on her property is found dead, Lucy is the primary suspect. Since the local sheriff seems determined to prove her guilty, Lucy sets out to discover the true culprit.

I am interested in homesteading, so the book’s theme was particularly interesting to me. I consider it one of the best new cozy mystery series that I have found in a long time. The plot was interesting and kept me guessing. I live in area that is similar to the book’s location, and the characters were very believable. I plan to purchase the next installment in the series as soon as it is available for pre-order.
