Jean Flowers Cancelled by Murder

Last Monday I read Cancelled by Murder by Jean Flowers. I selected this September 6th Release because of the cover first and the series name second. I love the idea of the main character Cassie who is Postmistress of her tiny town. I have always loved getting mail. I always wished I had something just for me in the mail box growing up and of all the job Sesame Street taught me that there were in my neighborhood I always thought that the Mailman or Mail-person job was the the best! I settled into read last night and was very quickly pulled into the storm that was brewing and the mystery that unfolded in North Ashcot, Massachusetts! I loved the relationship between Cassie and Sunni the chief of police. Having two strong women in such prominent rolls in the community really appeals to me and this series is one I hope will continue for a long time. This is book two so I simply must go back and read book one! The cover is great and I loved the little postage stamp boarder around the chapter numbers. Lots to love int his book!

Cassie Miller returned to her sleepy hometown in the Berkshires to start over as the new postmistress. But she soon finds that dead letters are nothing compared to murder victims...With a massive storm about to hit North Ashcot, Massachusetts, threatening floods and widespread wind damage, Cassie is forced to close up the post office along with the rest of the local business owners and residents, who are battening down the hatches and bracing themselves for the worst. Although the storm proves not to be as bad as predicted, fabric shop owner Daisy Harmon is found dead, seemingly killed by a fallen branch. But the police quickly determine that her death had nothing to do with foul weather and everything to do with foul play. After Daisy’s widowed husband approaches her to help solve his wife’s murder, Cassie vows to find the killer before another innocent victim is taken by storm.
