Book Review: Four-Alarm Homicide (A House-Flipper Mystery)


Title: Four-Alarm Homicide (A House-Flipper Mystery)
Author: Diane Kelly
Genre: Cozy mystery

This is the sixth book in the House-Flipper series, but the first one I have read. (Although I have read other books by this author!)

Despite being so far into the series, it was easy to jump in as the author does a great job of explaining backgrounds. The reader does not need to spend a lot of time figuring out who is who.

Whitney and her cousin Buck are in the business of flipping houses. Normally, they take on one at at time, but while they are in the process of restoring an old firehouse, they are approached by some neighbors who have questions on a townhouse nearby. Whitney and Buck decide to purchase a second property. However, this causes some concern with the neighborhood, as well as the previous owners of the townhouse. After a mysterious fire and vandalism, Whitney is stressed. Not only is she rehabbing two properties, she is also planning her wedding to Collin, a Nashville detective. Just when she thinks things will be ok, there is a death in the firehouse!

While Whitney has her plate full, she decides to investigate. However, she finds herself being followed, as well as also a suspect in the murder!

Can she solve the case before something happens to her or the wedding? 

Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for an advanced copy of this book.
