Book 18 of 36: A Darcy Sweet Cozy Mystery

See all formats and editions

Home from her honeymoon in Australia Darcy Sweet is settling nicely into life as a married woman.

The spirit world in Misty Hollow is uncharacteristically quiet and peaceful and even her Great Aunt Millie is unusually quiet. Which is very odd. It was like all of the ghosts have just... gone.

Darcy doesn't mind... it's a chance for some peace and quiet and gives her the illusion that she is just an ordinary woman living an ordinary life.

At least, that is, until she discovers something strange about her Great Aunt's death that raises some questions about how Millie actually died.

But she died from natural causes... didn't she?

Darcy has always believed it to be true... so when evidence comes to light that this may not have been the case Darcy's whole world is shaken to the core.

Can Darcy and Jon work out what's going on before someone else close to them loses their life?

Excellent Cozy Mystery series!

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2015

I've read the entire series of the Darcy Sweet Mysteries. I always get the new book the first day it's out and then totally ignore everything else I need to be doing until I finish it. All of them, including this one, have been clean, well written and captivating. Darcy, Jon & Smudge seem like an extension of my family, along with Aunt Millie. KJ, you take all the time you need to heal, I'll anxiously be awaiting the next book in this series... and I'll get that one on the first day out too!

Lots of Great Ah-ha moments

This book started off slower than previous books and was harder to get into, but once it got rolling, it was great. One problem has developed in this book that the previous books didn't seem to have: typos! That and the slow start to the book are what made it lose a star. Something I'd like to see slowly change: Jon is very formal and doesn't use American police jargon, yet he's American. He comes off as British. Darcy doesn't have that problem. She is believable as an American. Also, I found 1 non-American usage: glove boxes are generally called glove compartments in the U.S.. But I love this book and the series!

Since the very first story, you have been at the top of my must read list. Finding your great clean writing set my heart on fire. Being a senior citizen, I truly thank you!

You are a genius at story telling, with each new story's delivery being so much better than the last story. I have also enjoyed some of you other series'.

I anxiously await my favorite Cozy Series' next Darcy Sweet Cozy Mystery. I have asked God, to allow you the ability and desire to write many more Cozies for your endearing senior fans.

A must read cozy mystery series

Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2015

Verified Purchase

I read a lot of cozy mysteries and K.J. Emerick's Darcy Sweet mysteries is one of the best I have ever read. They characters are well developed and easy to identify with. The plots get you caught up and keep you guessing. The paranormal element is a "Sweet" bonus. I can't wait to see how the rest of this series develops. I hope Me. Emerick's doesn't keep me waiting to long

When is it time to let go? How can you let go? Maybe it is when a change is coming and you look back and realize that time moves on and you need to be prepared. Not Darcy! She would love to understand why her Millie or even Smudge can never tell her what she needs to know in her dreams by just telling her. Mysteries and why let you family think you died in your sleep? Protection? You bet. Love. All of it.
Great aunt Millie was and is a great part of Darcy's life and she is devastated when she learns Millie was murdered. How could she let her think differently. Love would be the answer plus protecting her from the true killer. Who did it? You will need to read it to find out and to find out who are truly the ones to trust. Feelings get hurt and love is destroyed but true friendship stands the test of time.
Also, Jon has finally decided he wants a family. Music to Darcy's ears. Will it happen? If not there is still Darcy's niece will still need her to help her with her gifts.

A really good, fun read

A really good, fun read. Darcy Sweet is such an enjoyable character and her friends (and new husband) make for a steady , hard-to-put-down pace. Love Aunt Millie showing up and, of course, Smudge the cat's "helpful" interventions. I do hope K.J. Emrick gives us another Darcy Sweet escapade before too long.

This entire series has been incredible, but this book by far was my favorite. I enjoyed finding out about Aunt Millies life. It brought Darcy story to the here and now. I will be WAITING for the next Darcy Sweet book no matter how long that may take! I can't wait to read the next chapter in Darcys future!

Book 18 a fitting conclusion to the current Darcy Sweet adventure hope for more.

I don't want to spoil the book for other Darcy Sweet fans , but this is a very good read and a fitting conclusion to the current adventures of Darcy and Jon. I hope that this does not mean the end of the Darcy Sweet series. I am sure there are many more story lines that can be explored. I am enjoying the Pine Lodge series with Dell. If you haven't tried them they are a must for any KJ Emrick reader.

Once again another fantastic Darcy Sweet book. I never like to say what happens in a book in case I spoil anything. If you like mystery stories with a twist this series is a must, all the characters are believable you will love the main ones.
