Genre: Cozy Mystery,
Private Investigator
Blurb:
Getting in shape
isn’t an easy walk in the park…
Running junkie Katie Carpenter takes a tumble down a ravine
and ends up facedown in the Hudson River. The police conclude her death was an
accident, but those who were close to Katie aren’t buying that she just tripped
and fell—including her pro-athlete boyfriend. But it’s Katie’s fitness trainer
and friend who hires the McKinleys to investigate.
Anything but an easy case to solve, Sean and Sara will break
a sweat trying to figure out who had the most to gain from the young woman’s
death. Sadly for Sean most of the evidence seems stacked against Katie’s boyfriend—a
man Sean idolizes. Can he put aside being starstruck long enough to view things
objectively? If Katie’s killer is going to be caught, he and Sara will need to
remain flexible and it might require bending the rules a bit.
My Review:
Sara and Sean McKinley are asked by their exercise trainer
to look into the death of a friend. The police have ruled the death an accident
but Minreral doesn't believe it was an accident. She thinks Katie was murdered.
Sara and Sean tell Miareal that they will look into Katie's accident even
though they already have lots of cases to solve.
Even though the police had ruled Marie's death an accident
Sara and Sean have more suspects than they can shake a stick at. We each clue
turned up it would lead me to think that I had you Marie's murdered but then
another clue would pop up and have me going in a whole other direction.
Exercise is Murder kept me guessing from the beginning
hiding its secrets very well. Each of the suspects seemed to be so cool, calm
and collective never giving up anything which is why I wasn't able to figure it
out.
I love the titles of each chapters having to do with
exercise in some way or another. I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every book
of Carolyn Arnold's that I have read but I would have to say I think that
Exercise is Murder may just be my favorite so far. I loved all the characters
but Sara an Sean were my favorites. I loved their attitudes and how they dealt
with the small things and their love for each other.
So I will say again that I really and truly loved Exercise
is Murder and can't wait to read more books with Sara and Sean. I recommend
Exercise is Murder to all mystery fans.
