ALWAYS FREE WITH KINDLE UNLIMITED! INCLUDES A DELICIOUS RECIPE!

Recently engaged and with a new diner to run, Nora Newberry has plenty to do in her hometown of Milburn, Wyoming. But when you’re given the chance to spend a weekend in Hawaii with friends…you take it!

And, while it was tough to leave her fiancé and business behind, that’s just what she did!

Of course, she’ll miss both. But she can’t wait to soak up the sun, fun and…murder?!

When an employee at the local zoo is found dead, the victim of an apparent snake bite, at first it seems like an accident. But something doesn’t feel right to Nora, who’d previously met both the dead man and the snake. So, before long, the ladies’ relaxing weekend away on a tropical island is plagued by a murder mystery!

A murder mystery that Nora insists on solving…

Read all about it in Death At The Zoo, the 6th book in Nancy McGovern’s popular culinary cozy mystery series, “A Murder In Milburn”!

First things first...I will take a gallon of the Kahlua Ice Cream. (Message for Author.)

We are on vacation in Hawaii. Oh yeah. There are beautiful beaches, shells, and delicious foods. There is also murder. A rare Parrot named, Tutti Frutti is murdered...and off goes, Nora Newberry of Milburn, Wyoming, and her pals, Simone and Tina on the trail of a killer...what a bird?

Ah, but that is just the beginning. You see there is a multi-billionaire, his childhood friends, drugs, vandalism, and more...oh, yes, another murder!

The girls end up staying at the mansion and a newly built zoo, while trying to figure out what on Earth is going on. Why are they targeted? Who cares about three tourists? And, isn't this wealthy man a little to friendly?

This book has action from the beginning to the solution at the ending. I did not guess the culprit and was misled all through the tale.

One of the most fun and clever series out here in Cozy land. Try the series and know that each novel is better than the last.

Death At The Zoo: A Culinary Cozy Mystery With...has Nora Newberry (owner of the diner in Milburn) in Hawaii with her friend Simone, who invited Nora for a retreat and Tina who is Nora's partner at the diner. Nora has just solved another murder and a retreat to Hawaii was in order. The three friends were enjoying the scenery, when Tina screamed. She had seen a snake, which turns out to be a very rare kind of snake. That's when shortly after, the friends meet Degas who is a free spirit of sorts, that has returned to Hawaii after his Amazon trip. Degas has his own zoo and that's where the next mystery and murder take place. Nora wasn't expecting to do anything but relax and enjoy her retreat. But it was clear to her, that she needed to find out who committed the murder and why. The author keeps the reader riveted to the story line with all the secrets that the island holds, that hold the key to solving the case for Nora and the others. This series gets better with each book that follows.

Good little mystery. This book needs a good freelance editor, but still deserves 5 stars. I totally was surprised at the end, but would have liked to hear how Akamai turned out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just the girls
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016

In book four Simone's husband was the murderer and left her shaken. Her friends Nora and Tina were for her so as a thank you she takes the girls to a small island off of Maui for a little get away.

In this book Nancy McGovern has again shown her ability to take the characters out of Milburn, WY and place them in a setting that makes you feel like you are there.

The characters of Degas, Haku, Elly and the rest all had their own personalities and I felt like I reading about real people with backgrounds even though lightly touched upon explained so much.

While I didn't think there were many twists and turns, the murderer and motive came as a surprise, especially since I made a very good case against someone else. I'm waiting for the next book.

I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review, but I had purchased a copy before I received this one. I guess that just shows how much I enjoy this series.

Gosh, Nora and her friends can't even have a vacation without murder and mayhem! With great descriptions of scenery and characters, the author lets the reader be involved all the way to the end figuring out the real killer!

Oh what a lot of silly drivel, it’s a shame I spent time reading this book to 8 chapters. What a waste of time.
