Review: Poisoned Primrose by Dahlia Donovan

Meet Motts and the quirky cast of characters in her world. Poisoned Primrose is a quintessential cozy British mystery and an all-round fun story to throw yourself into.

Synopsis:

Unable to resist her curiosity, she falls directly into a mess of trouble and runs head-first into the attractive detective inspector, Teo Herceg. She tries to balance her business with the investigation, but as the killer focuses on her, staying alive becomes trickier than advanced origami.

Will Motts survive the onslaught of murderously bad luck?

Can she solve the mystery before it all spins out of control and off a cliff?

I love everything about Dahlia Donovan’s new mystery series “Motts Cold Case Mystery” kicking off with Poisoned Primrose. Pineapple aka Motts is just as unique as her name. She moves from London to a small town and into a house she inherited from her aunt. Motts hopes to find the comfort and quiet that she requires to make herself happy when within days of moving in she finds a body. Welcome to the neighborhood.

Motts then meets an assortment of characters that could have killed the body in the garden. Assisted by a great supporting cast of characters, Motts decides to look into the cold case.

The supporting cast gives us a look into Motts past as they include family members and an ex-girlfriend. We also get to see how Motts handles a potential new love interest while trying to keep from getting herself killed as she follows the clues.

There is plenty of intrigue and drama in Primrose. I love Motts. Donovan includes plenty of LGBTQ+ community as there is a lesbian couple and a gay couple, plus Motts is an asexual biromantic. The “Motts Cold Case Mystery” series is a keeper and one you want to add to your must be read list.

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
