Description
THE FIRST NOVEL IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING FIXER-UPPER MYSTERY SERIES!
Don't miss the Hallmark Movies & Mystery Originals starring Jewel, based on the Fixer-Upper Mystery series!
In the seaside town of Lighthouse Cove in northern California, everyone knows the best man for the job is actually a woman—contractor Shannon Hammer. But while her home-renovation and repair business is booming, her love life needs work.
On a blind date with real estate agent Jerry Saxton, Shannon has to whip out a pair of pliers to keep Jerry from getting too hands on. She's happy to put her rotten date behind her, but when Jerry’s found dead in a run-down Victorian home that she’s been hired to restore, the town’s attractive new police chief suspects that her threats may have laid the foundation for murder.
 
Determined to clear her name, Shannon conducts her own investigation—with the help of her four best friends, her eccentric father, a nosy neighbor or two, and a handsome crime writer who’s just moved to town. But as they get closer to prying out the murderer’s identity, Shannon is viciously attacked. Now she’ll have to nail down the truth—or end up in permanent foreclosure...

        Contractor Shannon Hammer runs a home-renovation company in the seaside town of Lighthouse Cove, CA. She's more interested in her business than dating, despite the best efforts of her friend Lizzie to set up a series of blind dates for her. After Shannon engages in a very public dispute while on a date with real estate broker Jerry Saxton, he ends up dead. The new police chief, who also happens to be a hunky Norse god look-alike, thinks Shannon might have something to do with Jerry's death as the murder weapon was one of her signature pink tools. When Shannon's annoying and vexatious tenant turns up dead with another pink tool close by, things look difficult. On the plus side, though, Shannon's love life may get a boost when a best-selling author moves into the lighthouse and wants Shannon to renovate it. VERDICT Light and frothy, this new series launch by the author of the "Bibliophile" mysteries makes for perfect escapist cozy fare. Recommended for fans of Susan Wittig Albert and Rosemary Harris.
