A Snapshot of Murder: A Kate Shackleton Mystery by Frances Brody

Kate likes photography and belongs to a photography club.  They decide to do some traveling together as a club activity.  The first place they go is to an opening of a Bronte Museum.  Seven go.  Only six come home...

Crooked Lane Books and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published April 9th.

In the midst of the ceremony when everyone is crushed together in a crowd, the president of the club falls over dead.  It's no accident or health problem, he's been stabbed.  But by whom?

The cops won't let them go home, so they stay where they had taken rooms and answer cop questions.  Kate has some of her own.  She knows the wife's first love has returned after months of rehabilitation for his war injuries.  She knows a young man from the paper loves her but he's way too young to be a real love interest.  And before she gets back home, Kate learns another of her secrets.

The mystery and the characters were interesting and kept me reading but how the author tied up the ending was just a little too neat.  See what you think and let me know.
