A Cornish Wedding Murder by Fiona Leitch

I enjoyed this cosy mystery, narrated by a wisecracking Jodie Parker. Having left the police, she returns to her Cornish roots for a new career as a caterer. Employed to provide the food at an old friend’s wedding, she’s soon finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation. When her friend becomes the prime suspect, she knows she has to make her own investigation to prove he’s innocent.

It’s a gentle murder mystery, underpinned with humour that’s occasionally distracting. The main characters are fun, their enthusiasm infectious, and there’s even a hint of romance when DCI Withers takes charge of the investigation.

This is the first time novel I’ve read by the author and it’s an entertaining read that reaches a satisfying end, paving the way for a series. If you like a heart-warming cosy mystery that will keep you turning the pages, add this one to your reading list.
