Kite shop owner Emmy Adler feels an ill wind blowing through Rock Point when a murder hits close to home in the third Kite Shop mystery.
It’s nothing but blue skies ahead for Rock Point kite shop owner Emmy Adler. Strings Attached is thriving–even winning attention from a big-city reporter who wants to interview Emmy–and Emmy’s relationship with her main competitor, Jack Sullivan, is going strong.
But Emmy’s sunny outlook turns stormy when she finds a woman dead on the floor of the Strings Attached. When the sheriff eyes Jack as the main suspect after his kite charm turns up near the body, Emmy strikes up an investigation of her own. With Strings Attached’s safety breached and Jack’s whole family tangled up in the case, Emmy’s determined to track down the real killer before all her dreams get blown off course.
Dollycas’s Thoughts
Emmy Adler owns kite shop Strings Attached and she is so excited that she is going to be interviewed by a big city reporter. That story should put her shop on the map and help her business grow. That is until someone is killed in her shop. It appears to be the big city reporter and the evidence has the police looking a Jack Sullivan, Emmy’s boyfriend, and her main competitor. Before long Emmy realizes something that quickly involves Jack’s whole family. Before Jack’s life goes up, up and away Ellie decides to clear Jack from suspicion and find the killer herself.
A murder in a locked kite shop, no sign of forced entry, who had keys? This is a very clever mystery. A big twist tips the mystery on its ear and opens up the suspect pool. This story was perfectly paced for me and I loved the way everything came together.
I really enjoy these character so much. Emmy’s father reenactment group was just too funny. The way everyone just goes along with it was so genuine. We all meet Jack’s family. All the core characters continue to evolve in realistic ways. There is still plenty of room for growth and more mysteries.
The Oregon coast setting is again wonderfully described. I have been to Oregon, but never the coast. It is a place I would love to visit. This literary trip was a great little getaway.
A great mystery with fun characters. A Perfect Escape. Let’s go fly a kite!!
