When millionaire Regis Banks drops dead at his own party, everyone assumes it was from natural causes - after all, the man was celebrating his one-hundredth birthday.... Everyone except Lexy Baker’s amateur sleuth grandmother, Nans, and her three friends, that is. When it turns out that Regis’ death might have been caused by more than just old age, Nans refuses to let the trail grow cold - especially after a local reporter trying to get a scoop threatens to write an article blaming the death on Lexy.It doesn’t take long before Nans and Lexy are up to their eyeballs in suspects. And when those suspects start dropping like flies, Lexy and Nans have to step up their game before the killer claims their next victim.

Ice Cream Murder was a fun book to read with great characters. They ranged from young to older, people to puppies. The story itself was unpredictable enough to keep the reader interested and intrigued. If you like mysteries with little violence, fun characters and creative story lines, read Leighann Dobbs.

I enjoy Leighann Dobbs books. They (as this one) are light, fun, hint at romance, display sense of humor. The murder(s) occur, and then we trail along with Lexy, her dog, and her grandma and friends to solve the murders. Yes, It is not realistic, but the characters are charming and entertaining. And, the story has no foul language or much blood and gore. In addition, it is well edited!

Lexi Baker and the Ladies Detective Club are on a new case trying to determine if Regis Banks, a wealthy client, died of natural causes at his birthday party or if he was murdered. There are plenty of suspects because of his business dealings and his relationship with his three adult children.

This is another fun Lexi Baker cozy mystery. I enjoy the antics of Lexi's grandmother Nan and the other elderly women in the Ladies Detective Club. They always have some scheme to ferret out the clues and the murderer.

This is a fun read with death, mystery and plot twists, and a surprise ending! I received a free copy of the book but my opinions are honest and voluntary and I would definitely like to read more books in the series.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun light cozy

I've read the previous books in the Lexy Baker series. "Ice Cream Murder" fit right into the theme of the series - easy cozy reading. I was hoping Joe would have a bigger role in the series since Lexy and he got married, but he still is just waiting in the wings. Each book in the series has been light, cute, and a super quick read. I would call the series "mind candy" - no blood or gore, no heavy thinking, no crazy twists, just silly and fun sleuthing. The story is far fetched, predictable, and a little corny, but that's what makes it fun. Nans and her geriatric pose's always add a bit of shenanigans and fun to each story. This is a great series if you are looking for a quick read while you are on the go, a day at the beach, a rainy weekend, any time you just need a fun light story.

Each book in this series has been a joy to read. The author builds each character with detail which makes for a long list of possible suspects.

This story had the twists that have become common with her books. I'm thoroughly enjoy each of these fun reads. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a quick fun murder mystery!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am a senior that used to do some sleuthing on my own so I really appreciate their unusual tactics. I can just picture them! I would recommend this for people who enjoy a cosy mystery, especially seniors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cosy mystery. Easy to read.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 25, 2019

I love these easy to read books. They always make me smile even though a crime of some sort is included. A group of mature friends help solve mysteries togethers, they call themselves the Detective Ladies. Nans, one of the group, is Lexy's grandmother who always ask her to make some pastries, which they use to temp unsuspected persons of interest for information. It's a good ploy and usually works. Lexy sometimes thinks all these treats she is giving them is all the profit she makes at her bakery. As a bonus you usually get a couple of recipes at the end of the book.

As well as trying to solve a murder, the adorable seniors and other assorted characters, ate mouth watering pastries as they discussed their latest theories. The setting of a bakery added a delicious twist to an already well thought out and executed plot. You just never knew what was coming next. I enjoyed this book and would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good comfy cozy mystery that is very hard to put down. And there is an extra bonus at the end, some recipes for the yummy treats that our heroines shared over a great cup of coffee.
