      Synopsis

      Death by Design brings the first three Scrapbooking mysteries together for the first time! Keepsake Crimes introduces Carmela Bertrand and her booming scrapbooking shop, Memory Mine, on the fringe of New Orleans's French Quarter. When Carmela's estranged husband is named a suspect in a Mardi Gras murder, it is Carmela who must find the clues to the real killer-in one of her customer's scrapbooks. In Photo Finished, Carmela is hosting a late-night "Crop Till You Drop" session at her shop. But when a neighboring shop owner is murdered in the alley behind the store, Carmela's customers become the focus of the police investigation. And finally, in Bound for Murder, Carmela is creating custom place settings for a wedding party when she discovers the groom with a knife protruding from his body. Carmela must help the bride pick up the pieces while wrapping up a murder with more than one lethal loose end.

      October 04, 2009: Ms. Childs kept this non-scrapbooker but New Orleans lover interested throughout. She even tempts me to become a scraper. Keep the books coming. I ordered all of her other books after reading this one.

      February 16, 2009: Set in New Orleans before the hurricane, this set of mystery stories is an enjoyable read. Not super complicated in plot, the stories hold your attention. The scrapbooking tips included are appropriate for the time of publication. All in all, a decent read.
