Blurb/Summary:
My tiny town of Fig Harbor's just recovering
from our last tango with murder, only to be faced with yet another—and this
time, it sure looks an awful lot like a vampire's on the loose in the Pacific
Northwest.
Vampires are just Twilight fiction, right?
I'm not so sure after a murder victim is found in my koi pond right next to my favorite fish, Koi George, (not good!) with bite marks on her neck, and a gothic antique chalice next to her body with what sure looks like blood residue.
By now, everyone knows I can't keep my nose out of a good mystery. But when I literally try to stay out of the fray while our town conspiracy theorist is yelling vampires have invaded our beloved Fig Harbor, I have no choice but to gather up all the garlic I can buy and put my sleuthing shoes back on!”
This contemporary cozy mystery has it all, from the local doomsday prepper to an out of control pet monkey, a mother who would drive a saint to drink, and of course a dead body in the Koi pond.

Review:
Lemon
Layne is like a magnet for trouble. She also
has snooping in her blood. Sleuthing is
like her drug. There is no way she can
stay out of the murder mystery that landed in her backyard much to the chagrin
of Justice. All he wants is for Lemon to
be safe after her past troubles.
Play
That Funky Music White Koi is a cozy murder mystery with some plot twists. This is book two in the series and we get to
see a little more into Lemon’s fiancée’s murder. His murder is holding her back from living
her life and seeing what is right in front of her. One of the characters being questioned in the
murders helps Lemon realize some of her short comings.
This
is a cute story with the same quirky main characters from the first book. I was a little disappointed that the
characters didn’t have more developmental growth in this second installment. Very little new information or backstory was
shared on Lemon and her main crew. However,
it feels like it is building up to something and I’m curious to see what is
coming next.
