Description

The Agatha Award Winner for Best First Novel

In Korina Moss's cozy series debut, Cheddar Off Dead, cheesemonger Willa Bauer discovers that her new home in a small Sonoma Valley town is ripe for murder... something here stinks to high heaven, and Willa knows it's not the cheese.

Cheesemonger Willa Bauer is proving that sweet dreams are made of cheese. She’s opened her very own French-inspired cheese shop, Curds & Whey, in the heart of the Sonoma Valley. The small town of Yarrow Glen is Willa's fresh start, and she's determined to make it a success – starting with a visit from the local food critic. What Willa didn’t know is that this guy never gives a good review, and when he shows up nothing goes according to plan. She doesn’t think the night can get any worse... until she finds the critic’s dead body, stabbed with one of her shop’s cheese knives. Now a prime suspect, Willa has always believed life’s problems can be solved with cheese, but she’s never tried to apply it to murder…

Plot: This was such a good cozy mystery! I've gotten pretty good at figuring out the culprit (for those wondering, it doesn't change my enjoyment of a book if I guess right or not, because part of the fun is trying to see if I'm right!) by the end of a mystery, but this book managed to surprise me.

Characters: This book had a great cast of characters, with Willa being a great lead! I liked her group of friends, and enjoyed reading about her trying to figure out who she could trust, while trying to make her cheese shop a success.

The Cover: I like it, it fits the book well!

Overall: This was an awesome beginning to a new cozy mystery series, and I eagerly anticipate the next book! Overall, I would highly recommend reading it!

I received an e-ARC from the publisher.

Cheddar Off Dead by Korina Moss is the debut book in the series A Cheese Shop Mystery. This book has everything that makes the first book in a series good, and it left me eager for the next one.
I enjoyed meeting everyone in the cast of characters in the book.
Willa has just opened her cheese shop appropriately named Curds and Whey. She was excited to make her business a success but when a dead body is found right by her business, she knows this is not how it was supposed to go for her.
The mystery has enough twists and turns to keep me guessing.
I am looking forward to more in the series. The cover was great and I hope the other books have cover so fitting for the setting of the stories.
Thank you Netgalley, Korina Moss and St. Martin's Press for the copy. This is my personal review.
