Book report: Murder on the Poet’s Walk by Ellery Adams 5

Secret passageways, a deadly mystery, and more secrets than ever make this another thrilling installment in the Book Retreat Mystery Series.

Jane Steward- Guardian, mother, and resort owner, once again finds herself struggling to protect the most precious things in her care. She has opened her resort to a writer’s competition- the winner will receive a coveted writing contract for an up-and-coming greeting card company. The competition turns deadly when guests being dying; bodies posed in ways reminiscent of poets past, and everyone at the competition is suspect.

Jane and her friends must solve the mystery, keep the remaining guests alive, and prepare for a wedding.

I often say that returning to the grounds of Storyton Hall is like visiting with an old friend and reading Murder on the Poet’s Walk is no exception. I am not generally a fan of poetry but Ellery Adams inspires me to check out some of her favourite poets, which she very helpfully lists in the back of this book.

To my talented writer friends: do you enjoy poetry? Why or why not? To readers: who are your favourite poets?

Thank you to Kensington Cozies and Ms. Ellery Adams for the opportunity to read this book in advance of publication in exchange for a review.
