Suspense Till The EndA good story well written and it kept me guessing. I enjoy the suspense with twists and turns. A good author is good to find.
Was it suicide?I enjoyed this well-paced mystery, centred around a young girl who appears to have committed suicide. Cora Baxter is driving home when the teenager drops from a bridge onto her car. As a TV reporter, Cora is well positioned to investigate discrepancies and although this is ruled a suicide, Cora is not convinced.Assisted by her TV crew, of sound-man, photographer and engineer, plus her two girlfriends, Cora gets very involved with some pretty shady characters and asks rather more q...
Cora, a roving reporter for a breakfast TVshow, is driving home from work one evening when a young woman, Leanne, jumps off a bridge straight onto her car. The police believe it’s suicide, but Leanne’s brother is convinced that she would never have done that, so Cora decides to investigate, and becomes convinced that it has something to do with a new housing development at the end of Leanne’s street.I really enjoyed this cosy mystery (there’s no blood and gore), and though it is the third book i...
I was lucky enough to receive this book from the publishers in exchange of a fair review. The story follows Cora Baxter a TV journalist who witnesses a tragedy on her way home one night, she then sets out to investigate the incident and all is not as it seems. This is the third instalment of the Cora Baxter Mystery series. I have not had the chance to read the previous novels, but this did not stop my from enjoying this book immensely. The mystery was cleverly plotted and I did not manage to gue...
Where oh where has Cora Baxter been hiding! I absolutely loved this book. It's the third in the Cora Baxter mysteries series and you can definitely read it as a stand alone book. Although if you're anything like me, within five minutes of finishing it I had downloaded the first two! This is one of those delicious books that by the end of the first chapter you are engrossed and find yourself thinking about it even when you're not reading it! Cora is a fab character, she has that realness about he...
A quick thank you before I start to Accent Press, who kindly sent me an advance copy of this book.So, The Development. This is the first book that I’ve read by Jackie Kabler- and the first in the Cora Baxter Mysteries, of which this is the third novel- but she did an admirable job in carrying the story forward, while at the same time ensuring that you don’t get lost in all the little details of the previous books. In fact, this was a fun, sparky and fast-paced read, that uses Kabler’s own experi...
After my full on enjoyment of the first two books in the series I was very keen to see what Cora was up to now. As a reporter she has the skills to travel around the Bristol area picking up snippets of information. However while out in her car innocently driving and a body lands on her windscreen it kinda gives you an insight to how these stories work.It doesn’t take long to get drawn into the mysteries and the reader is just as keen to solve the problem as her team is. There is a certain level
The Development starts off in a dramatic and tragic way as TV news reporter Cora drives home after a busy week at work. A young woman lands on her car from a bridge over the road. The woman's death is ruled a suicide but her family - and Cora - aren't so sure. She begins to investigate and soon uncovers links to a planned housing development, local protests, anonymous threatening letters, a dodgy businessman and a possible cover-up by the police. Could they all be connected with the woman's deat...
I enjoyed this mystery!I felt a personal connection to this story because the main character lives near Gloucestershire, which is home to my university, University of Gloucestershire. I’m currently doing my Master’s remotely, but I will be going to Gloucester to graduate in the fall, so I loved reading about the town!This story really kept me on the edge of my seat. I couldn’t predict what the clues would reveal. I also liked that Cora worked as a news reporter. She had a perfect position to exp...
As it had been so long since I read the previous book in the series it took me a few chapters to get back into the swing of these characters and how they interact. There were early references to the previous books but my memory must be failing as they weren't enough to trigger specifics in my mind. As a result I think its fairly safe to say this is a book that work as a standalone, and it a great humorous mystery. There are moments in the story that are just completely hilarious, while they are
The Development is the third book in the Cora Baxter series, but the first I have read. It had enough twists and suspense to keep me hooked from the first chapter. It continues at a steady pace and will keep you guessing until the very end. In addition to the mystery, there was also plenty of laughter from me as I followed the escapades of Cora and her friends. As I mentioned earlier, this is the first book I have ready by this author and although there are others in the series I didn't feel lik...
I really enjoyed this book. Cora is a roving reporter who works with a great team. Whilst travelling home one evening she is witness to the death of a young girl, Leanne. The death is considered a suicide by the authorities but Cora is not entirely convinced, especially after speaking to Leanne’s family and neighbours and her subsequent investigation leads to a mystery with many twists and turns. There are many red herrings and a few chuckles along the way, the characters are very believable and...
