The Duplicitous Divorce [is] a cozy mystery/romance by author Susanne Marie Knight. There is a first in this series, but I haven't had the opportunity to read it, yet.

She's not too interested in getting into another relationship (recent break) until she meets Lieutenant Gabe Harris (police force).

With lots of humor to keep things lively, Ms. Knight has the reader guessing until the she reveals the killer's identity.--Sensual Reads 4 STARS! "This is Minx's fifth case, but it's the first time I've read this author's work. Ms. Knight does a nice job of creating a cozy mystery that's a bit unusual. Who expects your next door neighbor to be shot to death? She gives you enough suspects, all with motive, so it's not obvious right away who the culprit is. The author writes a story that flows well and includes some jealousy because the next door neighbor's son was once engaged to Minx and Gabe isn't sure the attraction is completely over. As Gabe works with Minx to solve this murder, the local cop is unhappy because they are messing in his case and he's acting a bit funny towards Minx, too. Poor Gabe… The author writes a good drama/trauma story with almost everyone being a bit guilty for some reason. She also gets you into the romance between Minx and Gabe and you find yourself hoping neither one of them will be bullheaded enough to ruin their budding romance. Ms. Knight kept my attention and kept me reading to see just how she would end the story. I was not disappointed. If you like a good cozy mystery, get a cup of tea and find a comfortable chair. This one will fill the bill for you. Why not see if you can identify the murderer before Minx? I think you'll be surprised by the way it turns out. --Long and Short Reviews I love Minx Tobin! My favorite Who-Done-It series!--S.C. Reviews This is a great mystery!--C.B. Reviews
