Today I am reviewing Post Mortem the 6th instalment in the Mail Carrier Mystery Series by Tonya Kappes. I absolutely love this series, featuring Rowena a marmalade tabby just like my Charlie.
Sugar Creek Gap is a southern small town where everyone puts their differences aside in order to come together for the greater good of the cozy knit community. But when a citizen, Jeff Faulkner, goes missing from the annual Sugar Creek Gap High School fundraiser, the rumor mill starts to turn faster and faster, churning up the past that puts Jeff Faulkner in the spot light.
Bernadette Butler, a local mail carrier, hears all the gossip swirling around while delivering the mail on route. Hearsay says Jeff ran off because his payment for an old gambling debt came due or he ran off with another women making both assumptions irrelevant after Rowena, Bernadette's feline, finds Jeff's lifeless body.
Heartbroken for Jeff's family, Bernie knows all too well what it feels like to become a widow and a son fatherless. Bernie can't help but collect clues with all the gossip flowing faster than she can deliver the mail, putting her smack dab in the middle of the investigation that has more twists and turns than the roads where Bernie drives her mail carrier truck.

I absolutely loved returning to Sugar Creek Gap Kentucky and visiting with Bernie, Mac, Iris, Buster and Rowena the cat. I must say this might be my favourite one yet in the series. I really enjoyed Gertrude and, Revonda Gail’s part in the story.
Revonda Gail helped Bernie out this time, and there were lots of suspects as well as twists to keep us entertained and guessing. I had no idea who the killer was until Bernie did! Also there were a couple of surprises and I can’t wait for the next instalment!
I highly recommend this book and series to all my cozy loving friends especially if they like an older herione.
I requested and received an Advanced Readers Copy from the author. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
