Murder With a View (House-Flipper Mystery #3) by Diane Kelly


 

Blurb:

Murder With a View is the third book in the delightful cozy mystery series from Diane Kelly set in Nashville, Tennessee--where the real estate market is to die for...

A DREAM PROPERTY

Carpenter Whitney Whitaker, her cousin Buck, and guard-cat Sawdust just scored a hot property near downtown Nashville in a tax sale. While the Music City Motor Court might not be much to look at now, the two plan to transform the motel’s twelve units into six one-bedroom condominiums with popular mid-century styling. But surprises await when Whitney discovers a squatter living in Room 9 and her cat Sawdust uncovers a body in the bed next door.

A LIVING NIGHTMARE

The murder victim is none other than Beckett Morgan, an up-and-coming country-western singing sensation who’s taken Nashville by storm with his number-one hit “Party in the Pasture.” Beckett’s left a long trail of broken promises and broken hearts, and the list of suspects seems endless. So does the line of female fans intent on halting the flip and turning the construction site into a shrine for the deceased star. If Whitney and Buck don’t help Detective Collin Flynn nail the killer, they’ll never be able to clear out the star-obsessed groupies, complete the remodel, and recoup their investment. But just who silenced the singer and why?

 

My review:

Murder With a View is the third in a delightful cozy mystery series. In this installment Buck and Whitney purchase an old motor motel to flip into kitschy condos. They didn’t expect it to come with the murdered corpse of a rising country star. This terrific tale has plenty of suspects and lots of inside dish of the country music recording industry. I found this a riveting story with marvelous characters. Though this is part of a series it can be read standalone just fine.
