Manhattans & Murder (1994)
[As always, this rating is relevant only to this corner of fiction: MSW "novels" and others based on TV shows.

Margaritas and Murder (2006)
I have watched about 4 1/2 seasons of the show and have enjoyed it. Not much of a mystery fan, I find myself either growing tired of some of the like, but Murder, She Wrote has always been one that I could never grow tired of. At most, I fall out of the mystery hunger. About a year and a half ag...

Martinis & Mayhem (1995)
Martinis & Mayhem ticked a lot of boxes for me. Firstly, I have worked in prison, so the opening chapters were obviously big draws for me. Secondly, I have always been interested in San Francisco, but never visited. This, therefore, was a thrill. And finally, the gay subplot was something very cl...

Gin & Daggers (2000)
Well it's not like it's the worst book I've ever read, or even the worst tie-in fiction I've ever read, but it's far from the best in either category. The plot itself was decent and in dialogue Bain captured Jessica, I think, but it was hard to imagine the narration portion really being Jessica's...

La signora in giallo: Assassinio sull'isola (2011)
This was my first of the Murder She Wrote series. I am a long time fan of the old TV series. The book read like the series. I can almost see Angela Lansburg as I read this book. Like many of the TV episodes, this one starts off innocently enough. Jessica Fletcher is on vacation in Bermuda. ...
