Playing With Poison by Cindy
Blackburn is the first book in the new “Cue Ball” mystery series. September
2012
Pool shark Jessie Hewitt usually knows where the
balls will fall and how the game will end. But when a body lands on her couch,
and the cute cop in her kitchen accuses her of murder, even Jessie isn’t sure
what will happen next. Playing With Poison is a cozy mystery with a lot of
humor, a little romance, and far too much champagne.
This was a good read. I love the
way the story flowed as it progressed from one scene to the next in that I
could not put this book down. The author did a good job with the mystery
keeping me guessing until nearly the end. Jessie is a strong protagonist who
happened upon being an amateur sleuth and I loved how she handled that role and
her ongoing conversations with Captain Rye was fun to watch. With a good
supporting cast and the promise of more exciting time, I can’t wait to read Double
Shot, the next book in this enjoyable debut series.
