Aurora Teagarden: La fortune empoisonnée

I am, of course, referring to the weird, creepy and unnatural looking eyebrows of the actor that plays Cade here (and the murderer on a Garage Sale Mystery).

They are VERY distracting.

I have seen at least 6-8 actors on this series (up to this point) AND on Garage Sale Mysteries with equally creepy eyebrows.

I jokingly wondered if that was the REAL reason Ro broke up with Martin (and not for allegedly returning to the CIA).

I also can't help but wonder why my reviews (here already longer than the ones I see posted online) are deemed "too few characters" by the site (when they are already several lines longer than existing ones).

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.

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

Good show. Aida had more to do in this one. But why do they have Aurora in a different house in every movie? Seems almost comical.

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.
