Another great mystery by Leslie Caine. I really enjoy her writing style and look forward to reading more of her books. It's also great that she keeps her books affordable for those of us with a small budget for purchasing books.

Getting rid of clutter is all the rage. I could not guess the ending of this one.

This was my second Domestic Bliss mystery and I really enjoyed it. This goes into some detail about the main character's genealogy (she was adopted). If you love the character and haven't read this one yet, you will really enjoy all the crazy characters that show up in this book. She describes in detail the rooms she is redoing, so all you HGTV addicts will LOVE this series of books!!

Colorado Interior decorator Erin Gilbert enjoys walking through a house that she is seeing for the first time and redesigning each room in her head. So when she first observes the outside home of Helen Walker, Erin is euphoric as the Crestview bungalow is a designer¿s delight. Euphoric as this seems, it is also a nice easy job though she knows she must show proper respect to the grieving owner. Then she steps inside to her horror she concludes the cluttered home needs weapons of mass destruction as Helen and her recently deceased sister kept anything and everything. The surviving sibling refuses to toss out what is classic junk clutter.------------------------ Still Helen tries to organize, mess and pitch what is obviously worthless in terms of money or sentiment. The problem is Helen insists everything has sentimental value. Helen¿s neighbor Rachel and Erin¿s two friends Teddy and Kay support the surviving sister¿ frustrating Erin who may dump her so-called pals if they don¿t mind their business. However, these intrusions are irritants the fourth invader causes colossal issues as that unknown visitor leaves behind murdered bodies amidst the clutter.------------------ The fourth Domestic Bliss mystery (see DEATH BY INFERIOR DESIGN and MANOR OF DEATH) is a charming cozy especially when Erin is cleaning the house or furthering her relationaship rivalry with competitor Steve Sullivan. However, that is also the weakness of the story line as the homicides come across as just additional clutter to clean up when the heroine gets around to it. Still Leslie Caine provides a fun domestic tale starring a harassed heroine struggling with saving a house on the verge of being KILLED BY CLUTTER, something this reviewer can relate to.------------- Harriet Klausner
