Molly Anderson is accused of the murder when Wendy is found dead in Anderson's flower shop. Not only is Molly a good person and popular candidate in the upcoming Stranded mayoral election, she is Effie Dodd's best friend, which means she didn't do it (Effie says so)! We all want a best friend like Effie because she puts her head down and gets results, no matter how many times somebody tries to kill her. She organizes the Stranded Pumpkin Seed Festival, conducts Molly's jail-based campaign, manages her own store, Interiors by Effie, seduces an art teacher, looks for a killer and feels bad when she forgets to water Molly's flowers.

I think you will enjoy Death of a Blogger. Not only are the characters engaging, but the subtopics (re: motives) are timely and interesting. What a great way to spend an afternoon!
