Aurora Teagarden - Roe to her friends - has always worked for a living, until an unexpected legacy gave her enough money that she could quit her job as a librarian. Now, with time on her hands, she decides to try selling real estate - after all, her mother is Lawrenceton's premiere real estate agent, and she's happy to give Roe a head-start in her new career. But at her first house showing, Roe discovers a body - a rival estate broker - and to make matters worse, one of her mother's colleagues is looking decidedly guilty. When a second body is found, in another house for sale, it becomes obvious that the killer who's at large in Lawrenceton knows a great deal about real estate - and maybe a little too much about Roe. She is going to have to find out who is responsible, before she herself becomes the next bedroom corpse.

Aurora Teagarden, having given up her part time job in the library on a whim, is trying to decide whether to become a realtor (estate agent for UK readers). Unfortunately the first house she visits with clients contains the carefully arranged corpse of a fellow realtor which is enough to put anyone off the job before they've even started. The client however is another matter and Aurora falls in love on sight with Martin Bartell.
I enjoyed this fast paced mystery story with its frightening ending. Aurora is an entertaining narrator and is far from perfect which makes her all the more human. I was not wholly convinced by the romance but I thought the characters were well drawn and the murderer definitely creepy.
If you want light reading in the crime and mystery genre then try the Aurora Teagarden series which started with Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Novel (AURORA TEAGARDEN MYSTERY) and A Bone to Pick: An Aurora Teagarden Novel (AURORA TEAGARDEN MYSTERY) and continues with The Julius House: An Aurora Teagarden Novel (AURORA TEAGARDEN MYSTERY) All four stories can also be found in one volume The Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Omnibus 1: Real Murders, A Bone to Pick, Three Bedrooms One Corpse, The Julius House (AURORA TEAGARDEN MYSTERY)

I was not sure if I was going to enjoy this book as at the start it was too American and all I could see were those 1980s soaps but once I had read a couple of chapters and the characters had been drawn I found the plot well developed and the murders a bit grisly but not too bad. I did fall for the red herrings and of course did not guess who eventually was found to be the killer. I liked the idea of a former librarian being into investigating and how lucky her mother was an estate agent in English terms. The women in the plot apart from Roe did sound awful and I found that very amusing so does that mean that Americans also dislike estate agents? The book was easy to read and kept my interest and I found a need to get another chapter read more quickly than some books. The book appears to paint a glamorous picture of life in the outskirts of a big city but we all know that is fiction. All told I will look out for another Charlaine Harris book and think if you like a grisly murder with a bit of sex thrown in then this is a good read.
