KILLER COCKTAIL

Molly Forester and her friend Cassady, join their friend Tricia for a weekend in the Hamptons. Tricia's very rich and very proper family are having a special weekend to announce the engagement of Tricia's brother, David. The family isn't particularly thrilled with the bride-to-be, Elisabet. She puts on quite a show at the party and the groom-to-be ends up carrying her away in disgust. Still, no one expects that the next day the bride-to-be will be found dead in the swimming pool! Tricia asks Molly to investigate the murder. After all, Tricia is a journalist and has already solved one murder case. The more Tricia investigates, the more complicated things get. That includes Tricia's already complicated relationship with her NYPD dectective boyfriend, Kyle, who is involved in the investigation, too. As usual, the girls tackle the case in designer clothes and high heels while drinking sophisticated cocktails.

This is the second in the Molly Forester series by Sheryl Anderson. It was a quick and fun read. Sometimes, I get a little put off by the endless references to designer clothing and shoes. I haven't a clue about most of the designers that she refers to. I also get somewhat annoyed by Molly always trying to read so much out of every look and word from Kyle, but overall, this book was the lighthearted affair it was meant to be.

Rating - 4 stars
