Murder and Mamon | Mia P. Manansala
12 posts | 10 read | 11 to read
When murder mars the grand opening for Lila Macapagals aunties new laundromat, she will have to air out all the dirty laundry in Shady Palms to catch a killer Lila Macapagal's godmothers April, Mae, and JuneAKA the Calendar Creware celebrating the opening of their latest joint business venture, a new laundromat, to much fanfare (and controversy). However, what shouldve been a joyous occasion quickly turns into a tragedy when they discover the building has been vandalizedand the body of Ninang Aprils niece, recently arrived from the Philippines, next to a chilling message painted on the floor. The question is, was the message aimed at the victim or Lila's gossipy godmothers, who have not-so-squeaky-clean reputations? With Ninang April falling apart from grief and little progress from the Shady Palms Police Department in this slippery case, its up to Lila and her network to find justice for the young woman. The Calendar Crew have stuck their noses into everybodys business for years, but now the tables are turned as Lila must pry into the Calendar Crews lives to figure out who has a vendetta against the (extremely opinionated yet loving) aunties and stop them before they strike again.

Another great addition to the Tita Rosie‘s series. I‘m excited for the 5th and (I think) final book to finish up the series.

I love this series! Lila‘s cousin, Divina, is sent to the U.S. to avoid a scandal, but she is murdered shortly after arriving. Watching her God mothers deal with this tragedy as well as the destruction of their laundry, Lila steps in to help find the murderer. Love this group of characters who are family and friends.

In the 4th of the series, Tita Rosie‘s Kitchen Mysteries, Lila‘s godmothers April, Mae, and June are set to open a new laundromat. When the business is vandalized and April‘s niece is murdered, local police are slow to investigate. Then it‘s Lila Macapagal, fearless heroine, to the rescue. Love this series🧡which includes recipes at the end!

The best part of the story is the use of Filipino culture. It‘s so representative of it, particularly how nosy and meddling some Filipino ninangs and titas can be.

I also loved the characters. Lila, her friends, her family. I adored them all! They really made this a “cozy” mystery.

First day of #Scarathlon and I‘m so excited. Watched a few movies, while writing September reviews. Listen to a bit of my first book of the season and did a lot of relaxing to prepare for Monday 🤣. Super happy to officially start. Now to listen to a bit more of my book until I fall asleep.

“Readers can expect the next deliciously deadly installment in Agatha Award-winning author Mia P. Manansala‘s Tita Rosie‘s Kitchen Mysteries.”

“In MURDER AND MAMON…homicide follows Lila and her aunties to the grand opening of their new laundromat—and Lila will have to air out everyone‘s dirty laundry to find the killer.”

Sounds fun!!

I love a good cozy mystery. It is a go to genre for when I need to relax. The book follows Lila Macapagal and her extended family. Lila owns an adorable coffee shop/bakery. Her mom owns the restaurant to one side. Her godmothers are opening a laundromat on the other side. With all the assorted friends and relatives, it was a lot of people to keep track of. The mystery was interesting. I didn't figure out the killer until near the end.

kaleidoscope.reader I am a cozy mystery fan too. 1y
