This is the ninth book in the long-running Five-Ingredient Mysteries by Maya Corrigan, and while I’m not really caught up yet in the series, I’ve loved each of the books in it I’ve read. Val’s Granddad just cracks me up with his recipes and his love for sleuthing. It was pretty cool how parts of this book were like parts of the Readers’ Theater play that Granddad and his friends were performing, “The Mousetrap” by Agatha Christie. Lots of secrets in this town!

My Goodreads review:
A Parfait Crime by Maya Corrigan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Another awesome mystery in this series that’s also packed with some great-sounding food. I’m so proud of how far Granddad’s come with his cooking and his column. The name Codger Cook always cracks me up! I love his character and his crazy way of sleuthing, but hey sometimes he might be right. I guess Val figured there’s a fifty-fifty chance one of the two of them might be right about whodunit.
The showdown was really cool especially when more about it was revealed. Never underestimate the power of these seniors! They knew exactly what they needed to do to solve this case, and they did. I thought the ending was super sweet and now I’m eager to see what happens next in the series!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by Kensington Cozies via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.
