BOOK TOUR


I'm so excited to get to be a stop on the book tour for
BOOKED FOR DEATH
Book 1 in the Book Lover's B&B Mysteries
by Victoria Gilbert


From the critically acclaimed author of SIBA Okra Pick A Murder for the Books, Victoria Gilbert embarks with a new series for perfect for fans of Kate Carlisle and Juliet Blackwell.

A book lover's B&B in an idyllic waterfront village becomes the scene of a grisly murder--and a ruthless battle between treachery and the truth.

Nestled in the historic waterfront town of Beaufort, North Carolina, Chapters Bed-and-Breakfast is a reader's paradise. Built in 1770, the newly renovated inn hosts a roster of special events celebrating books, genres, and authors. It's the perfect literary retreat--until a rare book dealer turns up dead in the carriage house during a celebration of Golden Age mystery author Josephine Tey.

The victim's daughter points the finger at forty-two-year-old widow and former schoolteacher Charlotte Reed, who inherited the B&B from her great-aunt Isabella. Charlotte is shocked to discover that the book dealer suspected Isabella of being a thief who founded Chapters on her ill-gotten gains. Charlotte has successfully learned the B&B business in a year, but nothing has prepared her to handle a death on the premises.

Armed with intelligence and courage and assisted by her vibrant older neighbor, a visiting author, and members of a local book club, Charlotte is determined to prove her innocence and to clear her great-aunt's name. But the murderer is still at large, and equally determined to silence anyone who might discover the truth behind the book dealer's death. Now, Charlotte must outwit an unknown killer--or end up writing her own final chapter.

By Victoria Gilbert
Victoria Gilbert is a new author to me, so I was very excited to read BOOKED FOR DEATH, and it didn’t disappoint.

Starting a new series, by a new to you author is a dicey thing. Will you like the author’s writing style? Will you like the characters? Will you like the setting? So many wills. Well, with BOOKED FOR MURDER my answers are . . . Yes. Yes. Yes. From the first chapter I was excited to turn each page and see what would happen next.

I enjoyed this mystery and the way author Gilbert kept me guessing through the twists and turns. Just when I thought I had the answers, I realized I’d taken a couple wrong turns which made the ending a total surprise for me.

I look forward to reading the next book in the Book Lover’s B&B Mysteries. If its anything like BOOKED FOR DEATH, it’ll be worth the wait.
