Design for Murder (A Bantam Crime Line Book)
Carolyn G. Hart
Crimeline, 1988
Mystery Game-board, Black Checkers `n Chin (No Gin). Reader/Author Double Win.
This 2nd in the DEATH ON DEMAND series has an intriguing set of intro chapters which compete with the brilliance of the pilot's opening salvos.
After the classic-mystery jazz-steps of the intro chapter pair sat me down in my chair, I, of course, couldn't resist ...

Something Wicked (A Bantam Crime Line Book)
Carolyn G. Hart
Bantam, 1988
Red Bicycle Zipping Through Scenes. Macbeth Bleeding Through Time. Wedding Bell Bliss
This third offering in Hart's DEATH ON DEMAND series has fully received the advantage of repeated features building upon themselves and establishing immediate reader intimacy. I was anticipating (and not disappointed) the repetition of key elements, one of which was ...

Set Sail for Murder (Henrie O Mysteries)
Carolyn Hart
Avon, 2008
Superb mystery series
I love Carolyn Hart's writing. It reminds me of Agatha Christie. She writes great books with well drawn characters. They are meatier than most of the series out today.

The Christie Caper
Carolyn G. Hart
Crimeline, 1992
Traditional mystery par excellence
THE CHRISTIE CAPER is one of my all time favorite cozy mysteries. I first read it when it came out in 1991 and it has been on the top of my favorites list ever since. I have also read it once a year since that first reading. Interestingly, Hart provides a cast of ...

Yankee Doodle Dead (Death on Demand Mysteries)
Carolyn Hart
Avon, 1999
A Great Mystery.....with a great bookstore setting!
After just picking up the book and starting to read (not knowing about the series) I was quite suprised. The story was almost like a Nancy Drew mystery in a way. The characters each had their own little quirks and were likeable in their own ways. I fell in love with ...

Death in Lovers' Lane (Henrie O Mysteries)
Carolyn Hart
Avon, 1998
I really enjoy the Henry O mysteries
I find that these mysteries are a bit darker and bit deeper than Ms. Hart's Death on Demand series. However, they are worth the time to read them. I have enjoyed everyone I've read. This book was no exception. Henrie O is a strong female who has not yet let go of her ...

Dead Man's Island
Carolyn G. Hart
Crimeline, 1994
can't wait to get the next Henrie O
I have read almost all of the Death On Demand series and, while I enjoy them, I thought this one was even better. Annie & Max have a life that is just a little too perfect Henrie O, while hardly fleshed out yet, seems to already be more of a real person. The plot for ...

Resort to Murder: A Henrie O Mystery
Carolyn Hart
Avon, 2002
A challenging puzzle for a favorite sleuth
Carolyn Hart is, in my opinion, the most accomplished and the best traditional mystery writer today. Her two series, the Death on Demand series and the Henry O series, closely follow the "cozy" customs. Her sleuths, bookseller Annie Darling in the first and retired ...
