Review: The Darling Dahlias and the Naked Ladies


The Darling Dahlias and the Naked Ladies
The Darling Dahlias and the Naked Ladies by Susan Wittig Albert

My rating: 2 of 5 stars



Once again, great historical setting with details galore, told in the traditional cozy style of people first, plot second. I'm not a big fan of mixing true crime with cozies, so when one of a fictional member of Al Capone's outfit shows up in Darling to deal with a fictional ex-girlfriend of Capone, I lose all interest in the mystery aspect of the story. But the gardening and life in a small town in the 1930s kept me reading this very light and fluffy story.
