DESCRIPTION:
Now Harrison will burn the candle at both ends to catch a killer as the tenant's death starts to look shockingly like murder.. When the power goes out in Harrison Black's candle shop, he finds his tenant electrocuted
Reader in Kansas said perfectly crafted cozy. I've enjoyed both of Tim Myers's candle shop mysteries--AT WICK'S END and SNUFFED OUT--because the series is crafted as the perfect cozy. The main character/sleuth, Harrison Black, has inherited a candle shop as well as the building his and several other cozy shops (antique store, coffee shop/bakery, pottery shop, New Age shop) occupy.

Looks like Aaron was electrocuted when water spilled on the chord of an electric potter's wheel he was using. The police are quick to rule it an accident, but Harrison isn't so sure. Especially when his other tenants keep telling him that Aaron hated electric potter's wheels. With the small police force being struck down by the flue, Harrison starts investigating. Meanwhile, his choice of a replacement tenant causes hard feelings and tensions to rise around the complex. Will Harrison be able to keep the peace, solve the murder, and run his shop?I loved th
