was surprised at how disturbed I was by the unexpected rockiness in Tom and Faith s til now so stable marriage I was as invested in seeing the chatacters happiness restored as I was in solving the mystery.

This was another interesting Faith Fairchild mystery I did not like the problems Faith and Tom appeared to be having in this book and the secrets both kept, since they appeared to be so happily married in other books of the series which I have read I am not certain that the rather vague explanation given for their problems toward the end of the book satisfied me The murders which occurred and were being investigated by Faith to salvage her catering business offered some twists and turns and surp [...]

This one started off slow for me, but then picked up speed Actually, what might have been responsible for the early slowness was the unease engendered by the feeling of something s wrong in Faith Tom s marriage At this point in the series, I ve come to believe in the relationship between these characters and it was uncomfortable to see the distance between them If anything, however, the author has become able to reach a little deeper and produce than just a fluffy, cozy mystery for us.

I would suggest that readers of this series skip this one It was not at all up to Katherine Page Hall s previous standards Faith was in a funk throughout the entire book, the new characters were thinly drawn, and the murderer and the motivation for the murder were both over the top lame Plus, for this 11th book in the series, the author creates a close familial relationship with a character that, as far as I can recall, had never been mentioned before I consider that a very lazy plot device Pass [...]

Faith Fairchild, new yorker at heart but minister s wife in aleford, mass She has two children and a catering business But with all that has also a tendancy to find dead bodies In this book, she has catered an event where murder mystery is the basis until real murder has occurred Other events intrude on her trying to solve the murder which makes it an interesting time for Faith and her aleford residents.

Faith has finally returned This book was based on Faith rather than one of her friends I enjoy the books in this series with Faith as the main character Katherine Hall Page has developed the character of Faith very well I feel something is missing if Faith is not the star in the book I hope she continues to remain so in the rest of the series

The ending wasn t as good as the rest of the book, but I read it quickly I liked the references to Massachusetts and the Boston area, since I live around here Faith, the main character, is likeable, and hopefully her business gets back to booming soon

This was my first book about Faith Fairchild I was slow to move into the story but that was mostly due to interruptions Once I started reading it went well The ending wasn t a complete surprise but was unexpected.

This was a simple mystery but an interesting local read I have been told this is not the best Faith Fairchild to start with, but it was fun to connect the fiction to the reality and contemplate making the recipes in the appendix.

Another wonderful Faith Fairchild mystery.

It was a very good story line wished I started with the very first book with this character for if you don t know the story line it gets confusing I did.

Very depressing and depressive tone throughout this book NOT a fun read at ALL Very different from the other Faith Fairchild books I ve read.

Love her books A nice easy read and yet suspenseful Love all her charactors and the history of the town and it s people.

Great new discovery for me Now I am going to have to track down the first 10 to read

I enjoyed this one too The mystery was pretty good, you don t figure it out until K writes it I enjoy the wacky characters in Faith s small town.

very well constructed mystery

This was an easy book to read and quite enjoyable I didn t pick the murderer who was a bit unbelievable but I enjoyed the food descriptions Smothered pork chops Yum, or not

I hated the ending, but I liked the rest of it I especially liked the Author s Note.

Faith Fairchild

Not a very good story, bad clues that didn t connect to any real story line Didn t like this one.
