This is number 4 of the Abby Glen Whiskey Business Mysteries and I think it is the best one yet! Abbi finds herself on the board of a women's shelter and embroiled in a suicide or is it murder? There is something not quite kosher amongst other board members making Abbi's journalistic qualities come out in full force. On top of it, the cook at the shelter turns up missing, leaving behind her young daughter. The cook is terribly devoted to her daughter and would NEVER willingly abandon her. So many questions to be answered and so many people are keeping too quiet. Which turns out to be a great distraction to the possibility of her business partner Grant's slow recovery and possible loss of career from the previous novel and her finally acknowledging heart's longing which might be too late. To think this mystery started out by Abbi trying to relieve her flock's over abundance of fleece. No good deed goes unpunished and Abbi will have to be careful as digs into things that some would rather she left well enough alone. Multiple plots and subplots and I was riding that emotional roller coaster right along with Abbi especially with regards to Grant!

Melinda Mullet does not disappoint! This is the 3rd installment and Abi just keeps getting better and better as she works her way into the Barley Boys club on her terms. A merry cast of characters at the annual awards night including Grant's former girlfriend, Brenna, who makes it quite clear that she would like to pick up where things left off. Between the ex-girlfriend making Abi second guess her decision regarding Grant, the possibility of discrimination amongst the judging and last but not least murder of the judges. So many possible culprits but how are the victims connected? So hard not to spoil so just let me say that while it can stand alone as far as the story goes, you will want to read this series in order to follow the time sync for Abbey and Grant.

Abi Logan is back in Balfour to check in at Abbey Glen and this time she is hobnobbing with a former rock star who may or may not be a murderer of his own band members. The town of Balfour is beside itself with the rock n roll hoopla and her head distiller doesn't trust the Rebel for one second. Is it distrust or jealousy? This was a great follow up to the Single Malt Murder as Abi becomes more of a local and less an outsider as she stumbles upon some old history that made history while her terrier Liam is tending a lost flock of sheep and solving a murder with ever trustworthy companion Patrick.

Abigail Logan is no wee lass, she is a photo journalist who has seen the grit and grime as well as the bold and beautiful but she has not seen the inside of the whiskey barrel. That is not until her uncle dies and leaves his distillery to her. Set in a small town, Abigail is an outsider and she knows nothing about the fine art of making whiskey. To complicate matters it turns out that her uncle has made quite a name for his distillery so it is much sought after by numerous buyers and someone will stop at nothing to sabotage the distillery, including murder. The only person Abi can trust without a doubt is her best friend and adult beverage connesuire, Patrick. This was a great read and I couldn't wait for the follow up!
