Death in the Park

I love Sunni's attitude and reporter's instinct. Her sneaking around the school for clues and questioning felt pretty realistic as well. I like the solution. It was believable for the characters involved. I'm not sure what I think of the ghost or the police officer yet. This is a great start to the series.

Sunni has moved back to Firefly Junction where her sisters live, to fix up an old inn and turn it into a bed and breakfast. To raise some money she is working at the local newspaper, but all she is being given is fluff pieces. She is told to go to the high school to do a story on the custodian who has just retired. When she gets there she finds out that his retirement may have been forced and it turns out there are a lot of secrets surrounding it. When he then turns up dead, Sunni goes into full investigator mode and starts searching for the truth.

The story is interesting with a good mix of characters and the potential love interest between her and the local police officer is cute. The only thing that I didn't feel fit the story was the addition of the inn being potentially haunted and her sister holding a seance.

Overall a great read though with a satisfying ending.
