Review: Silence Of The Lamps by Karen Rose Smith



Happy Publication Day! 
Now Available


Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. 

This series just keeps getting better and better!
Silence of the Lamps is the 5th installment of the Caprice De Luca Mystery Series by Karen Rose Smith.  Caprice is again on the case, determined to clear the name of her sister, Nikki, when former employee turned rival Drew Pierson winds up dead.  Drew has been pummeled to death with his very expensive (and very authentic!) Tiffany lamp, and of course, Caprice and Nikki are the ones to find his lifeless body.  What choice does Caprice have, she MUST find out what really happened before the police try to pin the murder on her sister! 

There is no shortage of suspects in the case, and it keeps the story moving at a great pace. I wasn't able to figure out 'whodunnit' until it was actually revealed in the story, well done!! It really kept me guessing, which is something that I am looking for in a great cozy mystery.  I love the characters in this series, especially Caprice and her vintage wardrobe. Smith uses great descriptions throughout the book, from her outfits to how she is staging a room and I can just picture everything perfectly! 

This has everything a great cozy should have: Great characters, an interesting story that keeps you wanting to read more and more, and some great recipes shared with the reader, can't forget those!  I am really looking forward to the next in the series to see what happens with Caprice and her friends!
