The latest in the Death on Demand series
Dead, White and Blue
Baker & Taylor bestseller
Annie and Max (Death Comes Silently, 2012, etc.) tackle multiple suspects and clues reminiscent of the classic mysteries offered at their bookstore. Their fans will enjoy rooting among the suspects in preparation for a denouement straight out of Agatha Christie. - Kirkus Reviews
The new novel in the series “Dead, White and Blue” upholds the high standards of this marvelous series about mystery book store operator Annie Darling and her unlicensed private investigator husband Max.... As always, Hart weaves her ethical and social concerns into a beautifully constructed mystery in which all of the pieces fall perfectly into place by the final chapter, with justice being served and order restored to Broward’s Rock. - Joe Meyers for CT News
Dead, White, and Blue is the perfect fiftieth book by a master of mysteries. It doesn't matter if you haven't read previous Death on Demand books. If you love mysteries, you'll want to add this latest Carolyn Hart treat to a collection of satisfying mysteries in which justice prevails. - Lesa's Book Critiques
Fans of this series will enjoy the twists on the monthly store contest and the involvement in the case of Max’s mother, local author Emma Clyde. - Karen Muller for Booklist
Anthony-winner Hart’s assured 23rd Death on Demand mystery (after 2012’s Death Comes Silently) finds Annie Darling, proprietor of the “most successful mystery bookstore north of Delray Beach,” dealing with the summer tourist crush at her store on the South Carolina island of Broward’s Rock. In a break from business, Annie attends the local country club’s Fourth of July dance, where Shell Hurst, the unpopular trophy wife of much older Wesley Hurst, puts in an appearance, then disappears on her way through the woods to watch the fireworks. When a club waiter later drowns under suspicious circumstances, Annie and her husband, Max (“Joe Hardy all grown up and sexy as hell”), search for evidence linking the two events. The leisurely plot takes several unexpected turns, and a number of suspects remain in play until the final revelation. Series fans won’t mind that Annie, Max, and the recurring secondary characters haven’t undergone much change over 20-plus years. - Publishers Weekly
I love the Darlings and I always enjoy trying to solve the mystery alongside them. I also dearly love Broward’s Rock and the Death on Demand bookstore. The secondary characters that appear in each book have endeared themselves to me over time, and I always look forward to taking another adventure with them. - Cozy Mystery
