The Corpse wore Stilettos, by MJ O’neil. With Coffee and a Cobblestone. Another Mrs B bite sized book review.

Meet Kat Waters, she’s an ex socialite with a new job in morgue. With her eye for detail and fantastic makeup skills the morgue work seems fairly straight forward, if a bit icky.

One night she meets the very charming Burns McPhee. Through a series of events soon after meeting McPhee, the corpse she was working on gets stolen!

Throw in some other interesting characters, an eccentric grandmother, flamboyant friends and a newspaper reporter the book is a good read. There’s definitely potential for more books about these characters.

So where does the coffee and the cobblestone come in? The one place that I know you can purchase a cobblestone from is the restaurant that has “golden arches” for its logo. I see a cobblestone to be a cross between a muffin and a cinnamon scroll.

On the face of it this book looks like its written to the usual mystery formula. Instead it has a certain feel that veers away from that. The cinnamon scroll from the “golden arches” is a nice way to veer away from a hamburger.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book from Book Sirens. My reivew is honest.
