A good cozy mystery by a wonderful author. Good writing details and led me on a fun chase with clues. Would highly recommend this book and author. Nice recipes too.

#TheDivaPoachesaBadEgg #NetGalley is another fun cozy mystery featuring Sophie, Nina, Mars, Bernie, and of course, Natasha.
Sophie is one of my favorite characters and this book really kept me guessing until the end.
I love reading anything by this author, and the domestic diva series has been a long time favorite.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of this book.

I love this series! It has everything I enjoy - a mystery that keeps you guessing, a likable main character who is smart and relatable, good friends, adorable animals, a setting in Old Town Alexandria,Virginia that is rich with history and delicious recipes.

Sophie's event planning business has slowed down a bit and she's enjoying the wonderful Autumn weather. When the family of a murdered interior decorator is found murdered, they turn to Sophie for help and she and her friends are on the case. The supporting characters are well written (especially the annoying Natasha), and add humor and are great amateur "detectives". The questions posed to Sophie who writes an domestic diva advice column and the competing column with Natasha, are fun and useful.

A " whodunit" with a engaging mystery, friends and heart.

I received an ARC from NetGalley and Kensington and the opinions in this review are my own

I always enjoy the Domestic Diva series, and this was no exception! I’ve read all of Davis’s mysteries, so I wasn’t sure that she could still fool me, but I didn’t know who the killer was for a long time. At the beginning, I had a hard time remembering all the members of the Norfinger family and who was related how (and approximately how old that made various generations), so I did have to keep referring back to the character list. Eventually they all became well-defined enough for me to tell them apart— I was just thrown by so many new people at once. I always miss Francie and Humphrey when they aren’t around, but I liked Nina, Mars, and Bernie being involved!
