Another great cozy mystery in this series.
Athena and her partner, Case, investigate the murder of a photographer. Her friend's husband seems to be the prime suspect, and Athena is determined to figure out the truth.
Love the characters, the action, and the plot. While I figured out the mystery, the reveal was great!
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Kate Collins provides a thoroughly delightful story in 'Big Trouble in Little Greektown,' the latest in her A Goddess of Green Street Mystery series. The cast of characters in this series is charming, funny and thoroughly likeable. I love how Athena and Case are progressing in their relationship, and their investigative business. Especially fun and heartwarming is the growth of Athena in how she deals with Lila, a significant and definitely not silent cash partner in their detective agency. A murder is committed to silence a photographer who has damaging evidence in a city corruption scheme involving development in a park area near the lake. As Athena and Case doggedly investigate a story unfolds with a reveal of a surprising culprit. I just love this series and the ending promises a lot of fun for fans of Kate Collins' other series The Flower Shop Mysteries. I can't wait for more.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.

What an excellent whodunit! There's lots of action and suspense in this cozy mystery. Athena Spencer and her boyfriend Case Donnelly, who is working on getting his PI license, are asked to help a friend's husband who is suspected of taking the life of photographer Hugo Lukan. Reading about their investigation kept me turning the pages. It was also fun to get updated on Athena's crazy Greek family. This book is a great addition to the series.

I received an ARC and am happy to provide an honest review.

I loved this book by Kate Collins. Big Trouble in Little Greektown had me hooked from the very beginning. I quite enjoyed the storyline and the characters. Invested in this story. Can't wait to read more.

The third book in the series is just as refreshing and fun to read as the previous two! Fun engaging well developed characters!! They make me wish my family was Greek! You must read! Thanks #netgalley and #Keningston for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Greek Town is a fun setting for this third installment on a sweet series by Kate Collins.
I really enjoy her other series, so I thought I'd really like this one, but I'm not sure how I feel. The family dynamics are good and the mysteries are always intriguing, but I can't connect to any of the characters.
For me, that's a huge part of a cozy mystery. I have to like someone in the story in order to keep me interested.

I enjoyed this book. It's got lots of tension and great characters. An interesting story. #BigTroubleinLittleGreektown #NetGalley

The third book in Kate Collins' Goddess of Greene St mystery series is a delight! This is the first book I have read in this series, but am an avid long-time fan of her Flower Shop mystery series. The plot revolves around a local photographer who gets murdered at a Save the Dunes benefit in Athena's town. I always enjoy the characters and setting in cozies and this is no exception. Athena has a large Greek family with lots of drama and an adorable son who helps her at her job at the family's garden center. The mystery storyline was interesting, but felt repetitive at times and the reveal at the end was fairly obvious to me. I would love to read the others in the series and gain more background on the characters, but this can be read on its own as well. Happy Reading!

This book was provided to me via Kindle by Kensington Books and #NetGalley for my honest opinion.

This established cozy series third installment is another hit. Kate Collins is an icon in this genre and doesn’t disappoint.

Through NetGalley, I received a free copy of BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE GREEKTOWN (Book 3 of the Goddess of Green Street Mysteries), by Kate Collins, in exchange for an honest review. Single mom Athena Spencer works at her family’s garden center in a tourist town on Lake Michigan. Athena has plans to work part-time with Case Donnelly once he gets his private investigator’s license. When someone is killed at the “Save Our Dunes” charity fundraiser. Athena talks Case into investigating the homicide even though he was not yet fully licensed. Their investigation leads them to dirty politicos, environmental battles, and land grabs.

I haven’t read the prior books but had no trouble keeping track of the characters or the storyline. Still, I probably would have enjoyed the book more if I had already read the first two books. I recommend this book to fans of cozy mysteries featuring murder, garden centers, big families, private investigators, dirty politics, blackmail, environmental battles, and shady real estate dealings.

A cozy mystery with a new spin. A large family living together or very close by with a meddling Greek mother, an easygoing not Greek father, four very adult daughters, and one ten year old grandson. Athena and her son, Niko, have recently returned to the family home and landscaping business from Chicago after a divorce. Since arriving she has been involved in solving a couple of murders and is in the process of opening a private investigation office with her new boyfriend and Lila Talbot, the town's bored socialite.

When a friend of Athena's is suspected of murder, she, Case, and Lila agree to look into what turns out to be a very complicated case.

I am a fan of Kate Collins' flower shop mystery series and I think this series could be just as successful. The Greek spin could be a very big selling point, especially for those people who are used to the Greek family dynamics. A meddling mother who won't be happy until she has found each of her daughters Greek husbands, the Sunday family dinners, the 10 year old boy being free to spend time where he wants. I can see a lot of funny family interactions in the future editions.

I liked the book very much. My only complaint is the pet raccoon. Raccoons are wild animals and can turn on people in an instant.

Yet another great book in this series! I love the Goddess of Greene St mysteries and they are rapidly moving up my list of favorite cozies. The characters are well developed and very likeable and quirky. Athena makes you want to be part of a big, Greek family even if only just for a little while. This mystery kept me guessing right up until the end. Already can't wait for the next one!

Of course the murdered man is a sleaze, but there are more problems than that. Athena is part of a large Greek family in Sequoia, Michigan and has had some experience as an amateur sleuth, so she takes it all on so as not to cause problems for her special friend as he doesn't yet have his PI license. Meanwhile her family is carrying on like a Greek Tragedy because of dodgy problems in local politics, Athena's surreptitious but very popular blog, and their suspicion that Athena's friend is not Greek.
Good sleuthing, interesting red herrings and plot twists, and some really good laughs. I really enjoyed it!
I requested and received a free ebook copy from Kensington Books via NetGalley, Thank you!

I have enjoyed all the series from this author. I enjoy the aspect of a Greek community in the States. Things seem to be moving along well with Athena and Case. I did find her relationship with her 10 year old son odd at times. It was a good, interesting cozy mystery.

I received this book for free for an honest review from netgalley #netgalley

Greektown is a nice spin on a cozy mystery I haven't read one quite like this before.

While Athena Spencer raises her young son and works at her family’s garden center, her family tries to find out who is behind the blog she writes under a pseudonym. If trying to keep her family from finding out she’s behind the blog, she finds herself working with her date to find out what happened to a photographer whose body was found while they were on a nature walk.

As Athena and Case dig into the murder, it opens a whole can of worms related to local politics and the environment…and the murder. Now they have to hope they can catch the killer before they are beyond saving themselves.

I’ve ready this series from the start and can certainly relate to the family dynamics as well as Athenas dating life, or lack there of at times thanks to her parents trying to fix her up all the time. With a family full of characters and Oscar, there is something for everyone in this quaint yet big fat Greek series!
