In Childs's diverting ninth Tea Shop cozy (after 2007's Dragonwell Dead), Theodosia Browning, proprietor of Charleston's Indigo Tea Shop, is in the audience of the recently restored Belvedere Theater when someone shoots celebrated movie director Jordan Cole on stage during Charleston's first film festival. Theodosia glimpses the murderer escaping in the theater's old dumbwaiter, but doesn't see enough to identity the culprit. Cole, a handsome rake, had more than his share of enemies, including his recently ditched girlfriend, Isabelle, granddaughter of curmudgeonly Timothy Neville, the festival's organizer, who asks Theodosia to fill in for a judge who quits. Despite being burdened with catering duties as well, Theodosia feels compelled to investigate the crime, much to CPD Det. Burt Tidwell's consternation. The savory recipes at the end will leave readers hungry for more. (Mar.)

A pleasant visit with old friends
By SAS
The Silver Needle Murder is a solid addition to the tea shop mystery series by Laura Childs. Although I figured out who did it fairly early into it, I did not find guessing distracted from my enjoyment. I read this series more for the descriptions of Charleston and the wonderful food served at the Indigo Tea Shop as well as the interaction between Theo, Drayton, and Haley. You sometimes wonder how they manage to run that tea shop and have a finger in every pot of Charleston activities! The mystery itself tends to take a back burner to everything else. I thought the events leading to the denouement were a little over the top and the reason behind the murderer's actions a little mediocre but that isn't why I read this series. A welcome diversion to a snow filled weekend. 3.5 stars

Not up to par
By A. C. Shellhase
SPOILERS FOLLOW:
As much as I usually enjoy this light reading series, for some reason this particular book just annoyed me.
Yes, fashion, tea history tidbits, and Charleston society doings are mildly interesting, but the 'mystery' was lost this time and the characters acted stupid!
I knew 'who done it' early in the book and am sure most readers figured it out, too. The usually well written heroine needs to get back to some semblance of reality and I'm truly beginning to dislike these gossipy, snoopy people.
We had way, way, way too much description of clothing, jewelry, shoes, table settings, glassware, crystal, wine, & antique furniture. It's like the author is going overboard to let readers know these people have good taste, are wealthy, and, supposedly, are well-bred.
It felt like the author needed to get the length of the novel up and increase the word count, so readers wouldn't feel cheated.
But, what bothered me the most this time was that the character of Theodosia acted like a stupid heroine from a B-rated horror movie.
More than once she went, alone, into the empty theater, scene of the murder, without letting anyone know where she was going. Like a female horror movie character going alone down to the cellar or up to the attic where you KNOW something awful is going to happen. If this book had sound track it would be a slasher-type theme.
Then, Theodosia, wearing 3" high heels, **runs**, with her dog on leash, away from someone who's following her home down the darkest, loneliest street in Charleston. Running in high heels. Sure!
Toward the (very bad, unbelievable) end, again, wearing Prada slides with 3-1/2 heels, she follows a wooded path off a dirt road. Only after walking quite a way, with no light, does she remove her shoes.
Come on! Any woman who wears heels knows there is no way you can easily walk on non-pavement without twisting your ankle. And slides -- no backs, no straps, no support! Just totally unreal.
Maybe it's time for a good editor to step in. Perhaps the author has run out of ideas for murders. If so, that's OK. Start a new series with new characters and let this one die a well deserved death.

Like Weak Tea--Wet, but Flavorless
By YankeeChick
I had read a few of the earlier books in this series & decided to give it another try. This wasn't really a mystery--more a a stroll through run-on descriptions of interior decorating schemes, clothes, accessories, and food displays. It was a lot like reading an issue of Home Beautiful. The story was tepid at best and the attempt to make the heroine's boyfriend jealous was just sad. It's hard to get excited about a book where you have to wade through things like, "Lynn knelt by the body, being careful not to get the hem of her scoop-necked, sleeveless halter dress dirty in the blood. The rhinestone chips in her black, slingback Jimmy Choos twinkled in the dim light given off by the Louis XIII gold embossed gaslights that had been imported from the Czech Republic at great expense by a major donor. Retrieving her black silk 1940's Chanel handbag from the Irish linen tablecloth covering the magnificent 18th century console table, Lynn turned to the subdued crowd of Charleston's rich & famous, noting as she did that Genevieve de Vandevoort had indeed worn the Empire-waisted purple slip dress that they had looked at in Tiffany's shop on Thursday." There's just so much detail that the story gets buried. It reminds me of those cakes you get from the grocery store that have so much icing on them that you have to scrape half of it off or you'll get sick from the sugar. I really couldn't recommend this, although the premise of the owner of tea shop solving mysteries is a good one.
