3.0

Another fun addition to the series. Campy lighthearted murder mystery. Great for people who don't like the stakes to be too high or too much tension. I didn't think this was as good as the first two as it did seem a bit repetitive and the Oliver/Orchid storyline bored me a little but overall still worth a read for me, as it is a quick read that got me out of a huge reading slump.
