Death by Demo (2023)
(Home Renovation Mystery, book 1)
Callie Carpenter
"Reading Callie Carpenter's Death by Demo - a Home Renovation Mystery was pure pleasure for a fixer-upper like me. She had me at page one with her description of a Queen Anne home needing her main character Jaime Moore's tender loving care. As contractor Jaime says, she likes to rescue houses and make them whole again. Jaime also rescues cats, as in the adorable stray she names Demo. Now if she can only rescue herself from a deranged killer who isn't too keen about her snooping around to find out who killed a high school acquaintance that Jaime finds entombed inside an interior wall in her new home. Death by Demo is an entertaining small-town cozy mystery with plenty of suspects - including Jaime's vile ex-husband, his new obnoxious girlfriend, an attractive guy next door, her parent's family lawyer, and the dead woman's callous boss. I thoroughly enjoyed the home renovation contractor tips, and the red herrings kept me guessing until the end. Well Done, Ms. Carpenter!"
