The Cornish Campsite Murder by Fiona Leitch

 

 

Synopsis:

 

Just along the coast from Penstowan, the local festival has filled the area. Former Met police officer Jodie ‘Nosey’ Parker has agreed to step in and help run the Pie Hard food truck, along with her rather reluctant fiancé, DCI Nathan Withers.

As they prepare for a weekend of camping and being elbow deep in shortcrust pastry, Jodie hadn’t bargained on witnessing a fight between members of the lead band.

But when the body of one of the band members is found not far from the campsite, Jodie finds it hard to believe it was an accident. Especially when the other members had so much to gain…

 

Review: 


 
The Cornish Campsite Murder is yet another confirmation of Fiona Leitch talent to write a good, enjoyable and engaging cosy mystery.

Jodie Parker, our caterer, and her fiancé, DI Nathan Withers are on holiday, but to help a friend they go to a musical festival to replace him selling his pies. They are busy selling food for the party goers' souls and having a good time with their friends and family, until a body resurfaces on the shore and they have to go back to their first job Nathan as a DI and Jodie as an amateur sleuth.

I like this series. The characters are funny and chaotic, they have some true and genuine relationships that always put me in a good mood.
In this installment I have noticed that Jodie seems less nosey, maybe because Nathan lets her snooping around trusting her intuition. They have built a solid relationship, becoming such a tightly-knit and enviable couple.

I would totally recommend reading this book.
