Amy-Faye Johnson runs Eventful!, an event planning business in Heaven - Colorado that is. She and her friends Brooke, Ivy, Lola, Maud and Kerry are the Club. They get together to read and discuss various types of mysteries.
This month the Club is reading The Maltese Falcon, thus the title. Not really sure what the connection is, but I'm a mystery fan, so it works for me.
When Ivy dies under mysterious circumstances and her death is ruled a suicide, her friends refuse to believe it. A-Faye, as Amy-Faye is nicknamed, cannot rest until she proves Ivy's death was murder, especially as she is on the scene just before Ivy dies. Ivy whispers, "Clay didn't mean it."
unbeknownst to Amy-Faye is marrying her ex-boyfriend Doug. Though she is still pining for him, she finds a new interest in Detective Lindell Hart, he with the Southern drawl, curly brown hair and six-four frame.
I enjoyed the book, but felt the ending left too many loose ends even though the killer was apprehended. Maybe there will be more explanation in upcoming books.
