Brandt
and Donnelly are once again called in for a special assignment at the behest of
the governor. This time, the two
officers are asked to look into the possibility that the rights of a couple of
prominent individuals have been violated.
This sends the two men into the crazy world of wedding planning, where
things are not always what they seem.
A Wedding to Die For is the newest story in the Brandt and Donnelly Capers series. This story is a crazy read that will have you
laughing one moment and in shock the next.
While it is possible for each story to stand on its own, it is important
that you at least read the first book in the series before reading any of the
others.
Brandt
and Donnelly are closer than ever and are looking forward to their upcoming
wedding. When their newest case involves
the wedding planning world, the two men look at this as a chance to get some
tips for themselves. The case looks as
if it’s going to be easy-going, while readers will feel the same way, so they
will be very surprised when things begin to go downhill fast. While readers will have a good idea about who
the “bad guy” is early in the story, there are little twists and turns that will
surprise the reader and show that everything is not as it seems. There is one really big surprise that I did
not see coming and was really shocked by.
I have to say it left me crying and a little mad at the author.
A Wedding to Die For is not all angst, however. There are a lot of lighter moments thanks to
Bryce and Nestor, a couple of secondary characters that find their way into
each of the stories. Fans of this series
know, that as soon as Brandt and Donnelly ask Bryce to help with the planning
of their wedding, things will get out of hand fast. There were times that I found myself laughing
out loud and wondered just how the author came up with some of the situations
that the men found themselves in.
A Wedding to Die For is a great addition for this
series. Like the previous books, this
one will have you turning the pages anxious to see what will happen next. It will also leave you dying to see what the
author has planned next for our main characters and hoping the next book will
be out soon.
If
you have not tried anything by this author, the Brandt and Donnelly Capers series is a great place to start.
