August 17, 2008: Carmela Bertrand owns Memory Mine, a scarpbooking store in the French Quarter of New Orleans. During an all-night scrapbooking session, Gabby, her assistant, discovers Bartholomew 'Bart,' owner of the neighboring Menagerie Antiques, dead in the ally with a pair of scissors in his chest. Carmela believes Bart was a shady businessman and is appalled when Billy Cobb, his young assistant, becomes the police's prime suspect. She decides to do some investigating of her own to find the real killer. Can she do that without putting herself in harm's way? This is the first in this series that I've read. It definitely won't be the last. I like Carmela and her scrapbooking buddies. I especially like the New Orleans setting! I am not a scrapbooker, but I have an interest in the craft, so that really appealed to me. If you like cozy mysteries, you will like this book. I highly recommend it!
