I enjoyed reading about the investigation, and the somewhat jokey friendship Miriam forms with the detective on the case. All the socialites in town love his products, and the arrogant doctor is a hilariously entertaining character to read about. Miriam is determined to prove Alma’s innocence, and believes that a more likely suspect is Dr Fuentes, a Cuban herbalist who sells overpriced herbal mixtures that promise weight loss, fertility, and other such medical claims. When a socialite dies at a Women’s Club luncheon, a tox screen reveals she’d died of a drug overdose, and an anonymous tip fingers Alma as the pusher. Miriam Quinones-Smith has just moved to her husband’s hometown of Coral Shores, Miami, where her best friend, Alma, also lives. It had all the markers of a fantastic start to a cozy mystery series: fantastic lead, compelling characters, and a twisty mystery with a personal connection. This mystery was just an absolute joy to read.
