Henry and Emily Fox are jolted from their peaceful semi-retirement in the idyllic community of Sugarbury Falls, Vermont when Emily discovers a dead body during her morning run. As if the discovery isn’t shocking in itself, Emily learns the dead body has a connection to the adult summer writing camp she is about to start teaching. With no apparent cause of death, Henry’s buddy, the coroner, suspects foul play. Neither Dr. Henry, nor former reporter Emily can resist solving a puzzle. As they work to solve the mystery, they discover an intricate web of relationships and motives involving the writers in Emily’s class. Along the way, they are confronted with a profound, life changing decision. Follow A Deadly Course through the first book in the Sugarbury Falls mystery series and see if Emily and Henry make it safely to the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Mystery

An exciting book that features two intellectual characters who solve murders. This was the first book by this author that I had read, and I loved it. I liked the way that the clues led to one suspect, only for the spotlight to
to turn on someone else. I liked the setting and characters which have laid the foundations of more books in this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The pen is mighter than the sword
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2021
I really loved this book. I started with book three but enjoyed it so much I just had to go back to the beginning and find out what I had missed but don't worry the author is skilled enough that reading them out of order doesn't matter, as each book is a stand alone mystery. The characters were interesting, I especially liked that they had to buy a guild book for coping with teenagers when they ended up adopting one, it added a fun aspect to the family life part of the story. The fact that Emily is a writer and met the suspects by offering interesting writing classes is a unusual occupation for the main character but I really liked it as it gave her plenty of opportunities to get information and question them. The author obviously put in a lot of planning to come up with the different sub plots and weaves them well. As for the mystery there was plenty of suspects to keep you guessing and I ended up coming up with the wrong suspect. Looking forward to the next visit to Sugarbury Falls with the Fox family.
Over the course of the summer Emily is offering writing course to would be authors but when she is out jogging and stumbles over a body she has no idea that the dead biker would turn out to be one of her students. His wife and business partner is also attending the course. With the police at a loss as to how the man died Henry, Emily's husband and a doctor at the hospital joins Emily in her investigation to work out how he died and more importantly who killed him. At the same time Emily gets news that her college roommate has died and has left Emily the soul custody of her teenage daughter. Then Emily's prime suspect in the first murder is found dead and Emily fears for her new daughters safety especially as the teenager seems to be bonding with the murdered man's young son. Is she in danger? and is the two deaths connected? Can Emily concentrate on teaching her students and find a killer at the same time?

I mostly loved this book. I loved how it centered around the attendees of a writing course. I love how it had several storylines unfolding simultaneously. I love how the ending didn't just bring some unknown character into the mix as the culprit. I noticed one error in logic toward the end. But I loved it anyway.

This book was suspenseful over and over. Clues were found everywhere. The main character and husband worked ingeniously together to solve the murder. Delightful read.

Reviewed in the United States on 3 October 2021

It was fine, entertaining, and well-edited. It was just flat for me. It wasn't really engaging and felt there was too much going on. And few scenes that needed more than suspension of belief (hotel that didn't check IDs, for example). And while it was set in Vermont, it didn't feel it. Other than a mention of Burlington and a covered bridge, this was anywhere small-town USA. I'll try the next one to see just if any improvement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fatal Writer’s Camp
Reviewed in the United States on 17 February 2021
Verified Purchase
This is the first book I’ve read by Ms. Weiner & I found it entertaining with more twists & turns than most stories. It certainly keeps you guessing even after you’ve figured what’s going on at the Writing Camp. I’ll try some more in the series. The only two mistakes that jump out are that Franklin being a convicted felon would not be allowed to have a legal registered firearm as his pistol is described. When Emily visits Mrs. Jenson the second time she is called Mrs. Carter a couple of times instead of Jenson. All in all a short easy read.
