"If THAT WASN'T CHICKEN, what else could it had been?"

Fresh Fiction Review

That Wasn't Chicken

Mystery Cozy

THAT WASN'T CHICKEN is hilarious with many twist and turns giving an unexpected ending, which I love in a cozy mystery. Whether you are reading or listening to the audio by Michelle Babb be ready for that outburst of laughs, which could be embarrassing in public. As the fourth book in the When The Fat Ladies Sing series by Linda Kozar, it continues the story with Lovita and her good friend Sue Jan as they again uncover another mystery in their little town of Wachita, Texas.

Lovita and Hudson are expecting their first child. Many things for them and their friends seemed to be going their way until a law intern who is some kind of eye candy, disappears after having a heated argument with Jolene's son. Jolene works at the Crown of Glory Beauty Salon and Boutique with Lovita and Sue Jan who have given their business a little attention lately while playing private eyes. While trying to keep Jolene's son out of prison they run across secrets that have them wondering what else the new barbecue restaurant is serving other than chicken.

If you love a cozy mystery with amateur sleuths, then I highly recommend THAT WASN'T CHICKEN written by Linda Kozar. The characters are a lively bunch and the story line is suspenseful and entertaining. The audio by Michelle Babb added life to the characters in a way that plays out in your imagination making it easier for you to hear and see their personality and expressions. It is a great way to hear a novel with a busy life style as you listen on the go. I'm personally looking forward to next one in the series!

SUMMARY

Murder, mystery meat, and morning sickness! Hudson and Lovita are expecting, and she's having trouble keeping food down for the first time in her life. Her best friend, Sue Jan, is busy juggling mommyhood. The Crown of Glory Beauty Salon and Boutique is busier than a one-toothed man in a corn-on-the-cob- eating contest.

Things are great until a handsome law intern disappears after an argument with their top stylist's once-upon-a-time wayward son. So Lovita and Sue Jan put down their forks and pick up the trail to solve the mystery before Jolene's son has to trade in his chef's uniform for prison stripes. But the supersized sleuths soon discover something very unusual about a popular new barbecue restaurant in town. Does everything taste like chicken, or did they risk it eating brisket?
