Book Review:
The fourth in the Fiona Quinn Mystery series, Tastes Likes Murder revolves around a wedding crime scene. Being the maid of honor at the wedding of a not-so-pleasant bride, Fiona's woes are more than tripled when the bride is found dead, with Fiona herself topping the list of suspects. For Fiona and Nathan, this is a mystery that they have no choice but to solve, to clear Fiona's name. I love how McDonald keeps the narration breezy and engaging despite the plot setting. I am continuing to thoroughly enjoy the series, and I look forward to the next. My thanks to McDonald, the publishers McWriter Books, and Lauren of iRead BT, for gifting me with a copy of this book.
Meet the Author:
For twenty-six years C.S. McDonald’s life whirled around a song and a dance. Classically trained at Pittsburgh Ballet Theater School, The Pittsburgh Dance Alloy, and many others, she became a professional dancer and choreographer. During that time, she choreographed many musicals and an opera for the Pittsburgh Savoyards. In 2011 she retired from her dance career to write. Under her real name, Cindy McDonald, she writes murder-suspense and romantic suspense novels. In 2014 she added the pen name, C.S. McDonald, to write children’s books for her grandchildren. In 2016 she added the Fiona Quinn Mysteries to that expansion. She decided to write the cozy mystery series that everyone, including teens and tweens, can read and enjoy. Presently, the Fiona Quinn Mysteries includes nine books with a tenth slated for 2021. The books are also available on audio, narrated by Maren Swenson Waxenberg.
Cindy’s newest venture is The Owl’s Nest Mysteries. Once again, she has set her cozy mystery in Pittsburgh and the female protagonist, Alexa Owl, is much different from Fiona Quinn. The Owl’s Nest Mysteries has a little grit, a little time travel, a little romance, and a whole lot of cozy!
Ms. McDonald resides on her Thoroughbred farm known as Fly by Night Stables near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with her husband, Bill, and her poorly behaved Cocker Spaniel, Allister.
