Genre: Cozy Mystery
Series: Snug Harbor Mysteries #1
With the most recent book in the Gray While Inn Series, Anchored Inn, Karen MacInerney introduced her readers to a new character, Max Sayers, and her dream of a fresh start in opening a bookstore in her beloved Snug Harbor, Maine. With this branching off, the author introduces the reader to a new tourist community full of old friends where Max had spent many summers as a child and holds memories of a kinder and gentler life.
Being a cozy mystery, you know certain things are going to take place, Karen MacInerney brings them all to Seaside Cottage Books. Beginning with the body found with a doorstop in his head, an ex-husband and his new love interest, neighborhood gossips, hostility from the sister of the previous owner, and deeply buried secrets and maneuverings to take Max’s dream away.
There are a few continuity issues, but since Karen MacInerney has taken the self-publishing route, that is to be expected. Overall, Killer Ending is a vacation book that introduces the reader to new characters and a place that will eventually grow on her long-time followers. Especially those that love when book titles and authors seamlessly weave through the narrative and mesh as well as a nice cup of tea and a freshly baked cookie.
