Christine Husom gives readers a nice dose of that home town feeling in THE ICED PRINCESS. The friendship between Cami, Pinky, Erin, and Mark is a strong one, and the bonds have only strengthened after their experiences from the first book, SNOW WAY OUT. I really like Pinky and her warmth and loyalty to her friends. I struggle a bit more with Cami, although she continues to grow on me. Her nosiness leads her into some risky behaviors (such as following cars home) and there were a couple times I wanted to call Mark or Clint and ask them to arrest her for her recklessness!
THE ICED PRINCESS is the second book in the Snow Globe Shop Mystery series but readers can jump right in and still enjoy this charming mystery. I love how Christine Husom incorporates the snow globes and their various scenes into her mysteries as it adds a unique twist. I can't wait to see how the theme continues in future books in the Snow Globe Shop Mystery series!
Book Summary
The national bestselling author of SNOW WAY OUT returns with more sparkling snow globes and cold-blooded murder...
It’s that time of the year again—the Christmas rush is about to begin, and curio shop owner Camryn Brooks and her BFF, coffee shop owner Alice “Pinky” Nelson, need to hire additional help. Their former high-school classmate, Molly Dalton, is not exactly who they had in mind. Has the rich socialite worked a day in her life? But Molly practically begs for the job.
On her first day, Molly seems to be in her own little world, and Cami worries that her new employee may flake out. The problem turns out to be far worse than that when Cami discovers Molly dead in the back of the shop, after drinking a poisoned cup of coffee. Soon there is an avalanche of suspects as Cami starts shoveling through the clues—including a shattered snow globe of Marilyn Monroe. Now Cami will have to venture out of her safety zone before the pathological poisoner stirs up more trouble...
