Book 6 of 6: Sloan Krause Mysteries

See all formats and editions

Amateur sleuth Sloan Krause is back to brewing in this latest installment of Ellie Alexander's popular cozy mystery series, Beer and Loathing. Includes recipes and a travel guide to Leavenworth!

It's ski week in everyone's favorite Bavarian village of Leavenworth, Washington. Sloan Krause and her brewing partner in crime Garrett Strong are pouring pints of their deliciously decadent obsidian IPA and serving up slices of peanut butter chocolate pretzel bars. The mid-winter has everyone buzzing with excitement, especially Garrett. His family is arriving for a long overdue visit to Nitro. He can't wait to show them around the village, spend afternoons skiing the surrounding alpine slopes, and curling up in front of a crackling fire with a hearty evening stout. But the cozy vibe takes a dark turn when a young doctor has a fatal fall from the ski lift. At first, everyone assumes it was a terrible accident, but Sloan isn't convinced. Hazel Anders had insider information on medical research that could be worth killing for. Now barstool sleuth Sloan is on the case and using her nose for hops to sniff out the murder.

I love this series!

I am so happy that the author continued this series! I absolutely love the characters!!!

Glad to read another Sloan Krause mystery. Sorry that the original publisher decided to drop this fine series. Ms. Alexander delivers a complex puzzle for the reader to solve. I missed the mark! But enjoyed the journey. Leavenworth is a wonderful town sprinkled with good characters -- even the obnoxious April Ablin. Not good but a well defined over-the-top person.

What stopped this book from 5 stars is Ms. Alexander's penchant for describing a dish in excruciating detail, only to have the recipe written at the end of the book. She does the same with Jules in "The Bakeshop Series." Takes away from what should be given to more plot or character development.

But "Beer & Loathing" is worthy of the series. Recommended!

Found editing issues? Read on for info...

For those who may have experienced editing issues or weird repeated chapters with this book, congratulations! You have found one of about 40 copies of an unedited version of the paperback edition that the printer mistakenly let loose into the wild. Trust me, that's not what the author, Ellie Alexander, had intended. She has posted multiple times on social media and offered to replace incorrect copies with signed versions of the correct edition for free! She's already done so for several readers, bookshops, and at least one library. Just reach out to her via any of her social media accounts or via the contact form on her website and she'll be happy to help. This really is a wonderful continuation of the series, so it'd be great if you got to enjoy the *final and edited* version of the book. :)

A great trip back to Nitro

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2023

It was a lot of fun to go back to Leavenworth, Washington and spend time with our friends at Nitro. All the usual cast and extended family was involved as well as Garrett's family that are finally visiting. Around all the introductions and nerves we still manage to get involved when a local doctor falls off a ski lift and there are questions of foul play. Garrett's sister Leah is a resident and had spent the morning skiing with the young doctor, what really happened? With plenty of suspects, I enjoyed following the clues with our favorite beer creating "detectives"! Meeting Garrett's family was also a treat, a very enjoyable read.

Another chance to “vacation” in Leavenworth from the comfort of my chair. Nice to finally meet Garret’s family and a murder mystery to solve. Had me guessing until the end. I was wrong again. Always look forward to Ellie’s books. She doesn’t disappoint.

Another slam dunk for Ellie Alexander

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2023

I look forward to anything written by Ellie Alexander and this book didn’t disappoint. I do think you should start this series with book 1 to truly understand the characters even though this book does fill you in with each one with out spending a lot of time elaborating.
Once again Sloan finds herself in the midst of a murder investigation along with Garrett her partner at Nitro. And this book is full of wonderful treat’s which you receive recipes for at the end. Added bonus is a tour of Leavenworth after the recipe’s section. Definitely makes you want to visit!
