A cozy crime mystery. Three friends in their 40s try to figure out who killed one of their ex-husbands. It was often funny and a nice light, enjoyable story even though it started with a murder.

Hilarious whodunnit! When Clio’s ex Gary is found dead on her doorstep, all evidence points to Clio as the main suspect. This mystery was revealed through multiple POV, including bffs Amber and Jeanine, and of course the biggest jerk of all time Gary.

Thank-you to NetGalley, Boldwood Books, and Katie Marsh for the eARC!

This was just not for me. Not a single likeable character to be found (in my opinion, at least), and it was fairly formulaic and predictable. However, I know the exact type of demographic that would likely enjoy it, so it's good to have in the back of my mind if I get people at work looking for recs.
