Murder at Cape Costumers by Maddie Day

A scary skeleton in the Costumers’ window, mysterious death, unpleasant visitors, and pickleball — so much going on in the latest in this Cape Cod series. Tim’s sister visits with her two adorable children, and then goes missing. Thank goodness for family stepping up to keep those tykes safe and happy. Mac’s Bikes is busier than normal and short-staffed, and the book club is too busy to discuss the book, as they try to unravel the real mysteries “as they do.” Contrasts abound, love/hate, joy/sorrow, honesty/lies, selfishness/family & friends, and for me . . . reading about delicious food while not wanting to take time from reading to cook. Now that I’ve reached the satisfying ending, time to look at those handy recipes, or Mac’s favorite “recipe” pick up something delicious.
Pub date 8/26. Time to read previous adventures if you haven’t yet.

#MurderatCapeCostumers #NetGalley is a fantastic book by one of my favorite authors.
This story had me feeling so many emotions, from Mac's love for her husband Tim, to the worries surrounding his sister's disappearance.
When a local resident is found dead, in a Halloween costume, things look suspicious, and of course, Mac can't refuse the urge to investigate.
The suspects include the owners of the new costume shop, and Mac is determined to find the answers.
I really loved reading this book. I've grown fond of the unique characters, including the addition of Ella and Luca.
I'm looking forward to reading more in this series and I'm happy to recommend #MurderatCapeCostumers to other cozy mystery readers.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of this book.

The Cape Cozy book club is back on the case in their small Massachusetts town during the Halloween season when a new creepy themed store causes murder and mayhem. Escapism at its finest
