Aurora is back living with her mother, Aida, after taking a really good offer on her house which was starting to feel cursed to her. Aida is split up with John because she refused to marry him and therefore he decided to move closer to his grandkids. Aida is helping Aurora "Ro" find a new home.
The Real Murders club is still alive and well, with all of it's usual members...except John, who as mentioned has moved away. A former member of the Real Murders Club and famous author Robin Daniels is in town where they are turning one of his books into a movie (Whimsical murder). Great twist, Ro was Robin's inspiration for the main character in Whimsical Murder...a crime solving librarian. Martin and Ro are still hot and heavy although Martin seems to be a bit distracted helping a former CIA colleague...Rex ends up going missing, much to Martin's chagrin.
Side note: I love that Aurora recommends Agatha Christie for a classic mystery and then Charlaine Harris for a contemporary.
The actress playing Ro consults with the real Aurora...and it turns out there is a best friend reporter based on Sally as well! Aurora decides she better read the script and is invited to come see the set. While on the set...the lead actress is found murdered in her trailer! Cue the murder board and the Real Murders Club.
Martin steps in very aggressively to protect Ro, when he thinks Robin is the murderer and asks Ro to stay away from him.
Another great mystery from the Aurora Teagarden Mystery Series loosely based on the Cosy mystery Series written by Charlaine Harris and still one of my three favorite mystery series on Hallmark along with Hannah Swensen's Murder She Baked and Mystery 101.
This series is a must see if you like cosy mysteries. The mysteries are well done, the core cast is really tight and the acting well done. They have really built a wonderful series.
