I misteri di Aurora Teagarden - Un'eredità per cui morire

6/10 - what one can always expect from a HMM flick: a capable, although amateur sleuth solving a decent mystery with a nice ensemble of supporting characters

Roe's best friend, Sally Allison (Lexa Doig), has the family drama. Her aunt, Gladys Allison-McCourt (Karen Kruper) is poisoned and dies at Lizzie Allison (Julia Benson) and Bubba Rankart's (Dave Collette) wedding. That sure makes for a memorable evening, but it's the reading of the will that gets everyone in a kerfuffle.

Instead of Gladys leaving her company and a majority of her fortune to her son, Cade McCourt (Preston Vanderslice), she puts Aida Teagarden (Marilu Henner) in charge of Allicourt Industries and leaves her a large part of her estate. That's when the chaos ensues. Who killed Gladys and why did she change her will a year before she passed away?

Starts off with an Agatha Christie murder event before a huge dinner event where a real Agatha Christie-style murder occurs - cyanide poisoning of a rich lady. Who did it? We got some shady suspects, whom Aurora and co. Question. This is a very good entry, keeps one guessing and moves quickly. The twist and the revelations are well done.

I admit, I do not know the series. An Inheritance to Die For is the only episode who I saw. But it is a nice one. The basic ingredient - the chemistry between Candace Cameron Bure and Niall Matter. The presence of Marilu Henner, like the effort of is a virtue in same measure. And, sure, the crime. Result - a pleasant story,Preston Vanderslice to give a reasonable portrait of. Cade McCourt is a virtue, in same measure. So, nice.

Vintage costumes are abound for the Real Murders Club Agatha Christie Night. (Agatha Christie's first book The Tuesday Club is what inspired the real murders club. Miss Marple starts meeting with her friends every week to discuss the details of murders.) The gang is all dolled up and being hosted by Sally's aunt Gladys at her home. The rules are it is like a scavenger hunt but no one can leave the room...and the first clue is the Agatha Christie novel Five Little Pigs.

I haven't mentioned the town lately...the town of Lawrenceton is not really on my west coast but back east in the state of New York. I always love when the fo shots of the massive waterfall that you can see from downtown. I have it on my list to see in person one day. Trust me my native Northwest is equally gorgeous...for those of you wanting to come visit out here.

Fast forward to Sally's cousin Lizzy who is getting married. Lizzy is marrying Bubba the lawyer...her long time boyfriend, both have been in several episodes of the Aurora Teagarden mysteries before.

"Some people think money solves everything."-Nick.

The wedding is lovely and both Aurora and Sally look gorgeous in lavender as bridesmaids.

"Teagarden women don't cry at weddings."-Ro "That's too bad because your eyes are beautiful when they are shimmering with tears."-Nick

That is one of the things I really like about Nick. He lets Ro be Ro and loves her just the way she is. He isn't over protective and respects her skills.

"Marriage and death all in one day. Life can change so much."-Ro.

Unfortunately Gladys ends up dying at the wedding reception right after she gives a lovely speech. When it turns out Gladys was murdered...the fishy behavior of some of the employees and family members becomes suspect. At the reading of the will it turns out that Ro's mother Aida is named the beneficiary for the bulk of Gladys' estate...including her house and not her son Cade.

Suspicions abound in this who-done-it.

"We're not playing the real murders speculation game."-Arthur.

Another great mystery in the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries series, the real murders club were integral in solving this mystery, and the relationship between Ro and Nick progresses.

This Aurora mystery includes the usual characters from the town of Lawrenceton. When the bride's aunt is poisoned at her wedding reception, Ro and her squad search for clues. The reading of the victim's will only confuses matters more; the primary beneficiary is a big surprise.

Candace Cameron Bure, as usual, is solid in her portrayal of the amateur detective, Aurora.

Though some clues seem obvious, the final solution is rather intricate. This mystery will keep you guessing.
