Noelle Granger just released the fifth book in her Rhe Brewster Mysteries series.
Last year, when I launched The Necromancer’s Daughter, I put all my tour hosts’ names into a jar and chose one to get a Diana-made book trailer. Noelle won the prize, but she wanted to wait until her new book came out to take advantage of the offer.
That’s now!
I’m delighted to share the trailer with you as well as my review. I’ve read all of Noelle’s Rhe Brewster cozy mysteries and highly recommend them.
Death at the Asylum
My Review
I’ve read all the Rhe Brewster mysteries and looked forward to this one. It didn’t disappoint, and for those new to the series, it can easily be read as a stand-alone. The story begins with the attempted murder of Maine’s governor. Rhe, an ER nurse, and her husband Sam, the police chief of Pequod, Maine, save the governor’s life and become part of a task force to identify the assailant, a sniper.
But that isn’t the only plot line twisting through this book. Someone has stolen Rhe’s identity and is trying to ruin her. At the hospital where she works, drugs are routinely disappearing, and her boss is after her job. Someone sabotages Sam’s car and attempts to steal her home. A serial rapist is on the loose, and a cult leader is expected of abuse. Never mind the bullets. While she and Sam pursue leads, she also must worry about protecting her young son and unborn child.
The book doesn’t have much to do with the titular asylum, unless you consider that the multiple plots and challenges create a version of bedlam in Rhe’s life. They contributed to a speedy pace, making the book hard to put down, and I enjoyed the puzzle as to whether and how the pieces were connected. I had little of it figured out by the end. Rhe and Sam share the pov, both told in first person in alternating chapters. They’re great characters that care for each other and easily hold their own. Secondary characters are equally strong.
Highly recommended to readers who enjoy cozy mysteries with minimal violence, a fast-paced plot, and characters worth rooting for.

You’re so talented, Diana! Yes, the snow. It would have been okay if we didn’t worry about running out of gas in the middle of US-26 on our way home from the beach. Lynton checked the owner’s manual after we got home. We had 1 gallon left before getting to the gas station.
We ordered the cabinets for the kitchen. It will be the middle of end of June when the kitchen is done. In the meantime, I leave most of the kitchen things in boxes.
In a sense, we try to get on a regular routine of life. Mercy bought tickets to the Tulip festival but found out this Sunday is Easter, so she changed to a later date.

Thanks for dropping by, Yvette. I make my trailers on Powerpoint, and they’re lots of fun to pull together. Noelle was a dear to work with and I was happy to do it. I’ve enjoyed all the Rhe Brewster books, so I was my pleasure to read and review. Have a great day and Happy Reading!

Diana was so enormously generous to make the trailer for me, and I am honored that her review of my book is the first!

Thank you, Marcia. It probably has too much going on, but I’m a pantser and write where my little gray cells direct me!

I can identify with that, Noelle, and sometimes I think the words that grow in that organic manner are the best ones of all! Much good luck with this one! 😊❤️
