Series #: Jane Doe Book Club Mystery #3
Mystery Notes: Twists! Turns! Even a red-herring! Honestly there was some good tension
Copaganda/police involvement: POLICE MISCONDUCT AND HOW IT IMPACTS A COMMUNITY????? Okay look I'm not expecting a lot from a cozy mystery and I did not get a lot BUT the fact that it's here at all is iNCREDIBLE. Rosa is also a cop and a main character, which :/
Notes on the puns of the title: I enjoy the double-pun of a crime in books and also a crime in like, the police books.

Four stars for touching on the idea of police misconduct and the honestly good tension. No recipes tho :/, which brings it down to 3.5 stars but I'm rounding up for NetGalley/Goodreads so it doesn't really matter.

No recipes.
