Fillet of Murder by Linda Reilly

This is the first book in a new cozy mystery series.  Talia has returned to her hometown after quitting her job and breaking up with her boyfriend.  She begins working at a diner that she worked in during high school and lives in her deceased grandmother's house.  A short time after her return home, a fellow business owner is murdered and Talia's boss Bea is considered to be the prime suspect.  Talia begins an investigation in order to clear Bea's name.  This mystery had good twists and turns which kept me guessing the murderer's identity until the reveal at the end.  I enjoyed the small town setting and the characters in the town.  Hopefully, in the next installment, calico cat Bojangles will play a more prominent role.  This was a great read.  I was lucky enough to receive a signed  copy of this book from the author; thank you Linda Reilly for sending me your great read!
