Mom Meets Her Maker

From the back cover:
I HAD THE PERFECT GIFT FOR MOM THIS YEAR ... A MURDER.
Not only was Dave's mother a great cook, but she had an amazing knack - between the chopped liver and the strudel - for solving his most difficult murder cases. Possibly because no detail, no matter how trivial, ever escaped that rattrap brain of hers.
When the Reverend Chuck Candy is found dead three days before Christmas, it's more that ill-timed murder. It's a complex case of religious fanaticism, illicit affairs and small-town bigotry. Dave - an investigator for the public defender - believes an innocent man is being framed. And he knows only one person inMesa Grande, Colorado, can untangle the web of unlikely connections and sinister intentions: Mom.

Journal Entry 7 by OBCZ-Kulturcafe from Bochum, Nordrhein-Westfalen Germany on Thursday, October 26, 2006
Am Dienstag ins Regal der OBCZ-Kulturcafé eingestellt.
I saw it at university and grabbed it on the way out.
The title catched my eye at the first moment. It had a great start but lost his speed with every side, nice humor though. The characters are great but you have to accept that you don't get enough of the brain behind this crime-book.
it was not my genre but i enjoyed it anyway.
greetings from germany
